Previously, solitary walks by women were considered unseemly. An unaccompanied hike in the country was beyond imagination; to promenade by oneself on city boulevards was unthinkable. <br \/>\nThis book features evocative paintings of women doing just that, by a range of artists, from the late eighteenth to the early twentieth century, among them British portraitist Thomas Gainsborough, the scandalous Gustave Courbet, Impressionist Gustave Caillebotte, American masters Winslow Homer and John Singer Sargent, and Nabi artist F&eacute;lix Vallotton. <br \/>\nWith paintings as her guide, Karin Sagner takes us on a visual journey through this vital yet oft-overlooked aspect of women&rsquo;s emancipation, from the promenades of the nobility to everyday walks in the city, on gentle strolls in the country or hikes up mountain summits. Quotes by luminaries like the Marquise de S&eacute;vign&eacute;, Jane Austen, and Simone de Beauvoir gracefully support her points.<br \/>\nA thoughtful gift for graduates, teachers, or Mother&rsquo;s Day, this subtle but profound book is not only an illuminating history but a beautiful art historical survey and an inspirational guide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This elegant survey of more than 60 works of art chronicles the nascent liberation when women began to walk freely by themselves in public.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":69103,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[5568],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-45624","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-art","7":"author-by-author-karin-sagner","8":"publisher-abbeville-press","10":"first","11":"instock","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Women Walking - ACC Art Books UK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Title: Women Walking, Pages: 152 Pages, Publish Date: 9th Jul 2020, Author: Karin Sagner, ISBN: 9780789212863.
