Bol Praise for Sebastian Smee and The Art of Rivalry “The keynotes of Sebastian Smee’s criticism have always included a fine feeling for the what of art—he knows how to evoke the way pictures really strike the eye—and an equal sense of the how of art: how art emerges from the background of social history.” — Adam Gopnik “Sebastian Smee brings the perfect combination of artistic taste and human understanding, and a prose style as clear as spring water.” — Peter Schjeldahl “Persuasive and vivid. . . . The Art of Rivalry is rooted in a closely observed theory, but it roams in a way geared to nonspecialist readers, part mini-biographies, part broader art history.” — John Williams, New York Times “With novella-like detail and incisiveness . . . [and] vivid, agile prose . . . The Art of Rivalry is a pure, informative delight, written with canny authority.” — Michael Upchurch, Boston Globe “[Sebastian Smee’s] brilliant group biography is one of a kind.” — Ann Hulbert, Atlantic “One of those rare books that manages to show, convincingly, the exalted stuff of genius emerging from the low chaos of life.” — Economist A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice • A Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of 2024 • A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2024 • One of The Boston Globe's “20 Books We Can’t Wait to Read This Fall” • A Next Big Idea Club “Must-Read Book for September 2024” The Pulitzer Prize–winning art critic’s gripping account of the “Terrible Year” in Paris and its monumental impact on the rise of Impressionism.
