Paris: Life & Luxury in the Eighteenth Century

Through art and material culture, Paris: Luxury and Lifestyle in the Eighteenth Century re-creates the complex and nuanced lifestyle of the city's elite society. From sunrise to sunset, routine daily activities included the use of a wide range of luxury goods and stunning objets d'art. By interconnecting the relationships, function, and beauty of these works, this volume makes a fascinating and important contribution to the understanding and enjoyment of a great period in French culture when Paris reigned as the fashion and arts capital of Europe.
