Zusammenfassung:"The 19th century in France witnessed the emergence of the structures of the modern art market that remain until this day. This book examines the relationship between the avant-garde Barbizon landscape painter, Théodore Rousseau (1812-1867), and this market, exploring the constellation of patrons, art dealers and critics who surrounded the artist.

Drawing on extensive archival research, the book provides new insight into the role of the modern artist as professional.
