Grasse capitale mondiale du parfum

Grasse est une ville de la Côte d'Azur, située dans les collines au nord de la ville de Cannes. Elle est connue pour son industrie du parfum, établie de longue date, dont l'héritage est célébré au musée international de la Parfumerie, en plein cœur de la ville. Certaines grandes parfumeries comme Fragonard, Molinard et Galimard peuvent se visiter. La cathédrale de Grasse, ancienne cathédrale catholique romaine édifiée dans la vieille ville, abrite de nombreuses peintures, dont certaines réalisées par Rubens.

Grasse world capital of perfume

Grasse is a town on the French Riviera, located in the hills north of the city of Cannes. It is known for its long-established perfume industry, whose heritage is celebrated at the International Perfume Museum in the heart of the city. Some large perfumeries such as Fragonard, Molinard and Galimard can be visited. The cathedral of Grasse, a former Roman Catholic cathedral built in the old town, houses many paintings, some of which were painted by Rubens.

  

It is with the approach of the First World War that Eugène Fuchs, with the innate spirit of an entrepreneur who has already been conquered by the magic of perfume, decides to create his business based on an absolutely new concept, that of the direct sale of perfumed products to tourists, who begin to discover the charm of the French Riviera. Parfumerie Fragonard was born on this basis in 1926.

The fragances recover older memories, more emotional and more detailed than any other sensory impact. Certain odors immediately and vividly evoke experiences and memories stored in our memory.

C’est l’une des trois « folies » du XVIIIe siècle existant encore en France. Ce pavillon fut dessiné, dit-on, en Italie par le peintre Fragonard qui accompagnait en 1774 le receveur général des finances, Bergeret. Son fils en décida la construction dans le parc de son château de Cassan.

 

It is one of the three “follies” of the 18th century still existing in France. This pavilion was designed, it is said, in Italy by the painter Fragonard who accompanied in 1774 the Receiver General of Finances, Bergeret. His son decided to build it in the park of his castle in Cassan.

 

Jest to jedno z trzech „szaleństw” XVIII wieku, które wciąż istnieją we Francji. Pawilon ten został zaprojektowany, podobno, we Włoszech przez malarza Fragonarda, który towarzyszył w 1774 r. Generalnemu Naczelnikowi Finansów Bergeretowi. Jego syn postanowił zbudować go w parku swojego zamku w Cassan.

The Bowes Museum has a nationally-renowned art collection and is situated in the town of Barnard Castle, Teesdale, County Durham, England. The museum contains paintings by El Greco, Francisco Goya, Canaletto, Jean-Honoré Fragonard and François Boucher, together with a sizable collection of decorative art, ceramics, textiles, tapestries, clocks and costumes, as well as older items from local history. The early works of French glassmaker Émile Gallé were commissioned by Joséphine, wife of the founder John Bowes. A great attraction is the 18th-century Silver Swan automaton, which periodically preens itself, looks round and appears to catch and swallow a fish.

" ... Gourdon è considerato tra i più belli villaggi di Francia e famoso per la sua produzione di sapone artigianale.

Ovunque, girando tra le sue viuzze, si sente il profumo delle essenze aggiunto al sapone di marsiglia. Molte provengono da antiche tradizioni profumiere come quelle di Fragonard dalla vicina Grasse.

 

Il sapone di Marsiglia deriva dal Sapone di Aleppo: un prodotto che rappresenta migliaia di anni di cultura e di storia. La tecnica di fabbricazione originaria della città di Aleppo, in Siria, a base d'olio d'oliva e di alloro, a seguito delle crociate si è diffusa attraverso il bacino del Mediterraneo, passando per l'Italia e la Spagna, per raggiungere Marsiglia.

 

Crescas Davin, nel XIV secolo, è il primo saponaio ufficiale della città.

Il 5 ottobre 1688 l'editto di Colbert, Ministro della Real Casa di Luigi XIV, regolamentò la fabbricazione del sapone.

Ai sensi dell'articolo III di quest'editto: Non si potrà utilizzare nella fabbricazione di sapone, insieme a barrilla (soda di Spagna), soda o cenere, nessun grasso, burro né altre materiale; ma soltanto puro olio di oliva, e senza mescolanza di grasso, a pena di confisca delle merci...."

Based on a bet with Queen Marie Antoinette, King Louis XVI’s brother, the comte d’Artois, had a pleasure pavilion built on the outskirts of Paris in a mere sixty-four days through the labor of more than eight hundred craftsmen. Robert’s six paintings of Italian landscapes were installed in an elaborate bathing room, prompting their overarching theme of water. Having spent eleven years in Italy, where he befriended Jean Honoré Fragonard and other French artists abroad, Robert knew ancient architecture and sculpture deeply. In this series, however, instead of antiquarian exactitude, he combined sources freely.

The Studio by Honoré Daumier

 

French, about 1870

Oil on canvas

16 x 12 1/2 in.

 

One of my favorites at The Getty Center. Photographed last August 2008. The stunning and impressive application and execution of light in this image has always inspired me. Daumier is, indeed, a true master.

 

"Known for his satirical, touching portrayals of contemporary life, Honoré Daumier changed direction temporarily after seeing a newly hung collection of paintings by Jean-Honoré Fragonard in the Musée du Louvre in 1869.

 

Struck by the expressive power of Fragonard's rapid brushstroke, Daumier paid homage to his predecessor in a series of paintings that included The Studio. Daumier, who almost never portrayed beautiful women as objects of attraction, succumbed to Fragonard's sensuality and endowed this model with the upswept hair and casual off-the-shoulder costume of Fragonard's females. Emulating Fragonard's manner of sketching on canvas, Daumier made her dress shimmer, drawing with his brush to build the lights cascading from her blouse onto her full skirt.

 

Aside from touches of gestural brushwork on the man's sleeve, the model's hair, and the woman's brilliantly illuminated skin and dress, this painting's darker palette and largely subdued brushwork are consistent with Daumier's usual style. The artist hunched over his easel in the background also resembles his frequent depictions of painters or connoisseurs profoundly isolated by involvement with a work of art."

The Milwaukee Art Museum (MAM) is an art museum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Its collection contains nearly 25,000 works of art. It is one of the largest museums in the United States. Beginning around 1872, multiple organizations were founded in order to bring an art gallery to Milwaukee, as the city was still a growing port town with little or no facilities to hold major art exhibitions. Over the span of at least nine years, all attempts to build a major art gallery had failed. Shortly after that year, Alexander Mitchell donated all of her collection into constructing Milwaukee's first permanent art gallery in the city's history. In 1888, the Milwaukee Art Association was created by a group of German panorama artists and local businessmen. The same year, British-born businessman Frederick Layton built, endowed, and provided artwork for the Layton Art Gallery, now demolished. In 1911, the Milwaukee Art Institute, another building constructed to hold other exhibitions and collections, was completed. The institute was built right next to the Layton Art Gallery. The Milwaukee Art Museum was founded in 1888 and is purported to be Milwaukee's first art gallery, though that claim is disputed by the Layton Art Gallery, which opened the same year. The Milwaukee Art Center (now the Milwaukee Art Museum) was formed when the Milwaukee Art Institute and Layton Art Gallery merged their collections in 1957 and moved into the newly built Eero Saarinen-designed Milwaukee County War Memorial. In the latter half of the 20th century, the museum came to include the War Memorial Center in 1957 as well as the brutalist Kahler Building (1975) designed by David Kahler and the Quadracci Pavilion (2001) created by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. The Quadracci Pavilion contains a movable, wing-like brise soleil that opens up for a wingspan of 217 feet (66 m) during the day, folding over the tall, arched structure at night or during inclement weather. The pavilion received the 2004 Outstanding Structure Award from the International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering. This iconic building, often referred to as "the Calatrava", is used in the museum logo. In November 2015, the museum opened a $34 million expansion funded jointly by a museum capital campaign and by Milwaukee County. The new building, the Shields Building, designed by Milwaukee architect James Shields of HGA, provides an additional 30,000 square feet for art, including a section devoted to light-based media, photography, and video installation. The building includes a new atrium and lakefront-facing entry point for visitors and was designed with cantilevered elements and concrete columns to complement, respectively, the existing Calatrava and Kahler structures on the site. The final design emerged after a lengthy process that included the main architect's departure because of design disputes and his return to the project. The museum houses nearly 25,000 works of art housed on four floors, with works from antiquity to the present. Included in the collection are 15th- to 20th-century European and 17th- to 20th-century American paintings, sculpture, prints, drawings, decorative arts, photographs, and folk and self-taught art. Among the best in the collection are the museum's holding of American decorative arts, German Expressionism, folk and Haitian art, and American art after 1960. The museum holds one of the largest collections of works by Wisconsin native Georgia O'Keeffe. Other artists represented include Gustave Caillebotte, Nardo di Cione, Francisco de Zurbarán, Jean-Honoré Fragonard, Winslow Homer, Auguste Rodin, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Gabriele Munter, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Frank Lloyd Wright, Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Wassily Kandinsky, Mark Rothko, Robert Gober, and Andy Warhol. It also has paintings by European painters Francesco Botticini, Jan Swart van Groningen, Ferdinand Bol, Jan van Goyen, Hendrick Van Vliet, Franz von Lenbach (Bavarian Girl), Ferdinand Waldmüller (Interruption), Carl Spitzweg, Bouguereau, Gerome (2 Majesties), Gustave Caillebotte, Camille Pissarro, Alfred Kowalski (Winter in Russia), Jules Bastien-Lepage (The Wood Gatherer), and Max Pechstein.

Title: The Swing by Jean-Honoré Fragonard (1767, Rococo) See the original painting.

 

This round has been to me the most difficult so far... We had to reproduce an existing painting and I chose this one from the Rococo.

 

I used a lot of moss (lucky me, it's X-mas time!) to make the trees and to cover the branches of a mini tree. The moss is "glued" to a wood board with polyurethane spray foam.

 

I have to thank my boyfriend because he lent me the mini tree and went with me to buy the moss. Thanks to my father too, who suggested to use the polyurethane and helped me to prepare the whole scene (we spent 2 h!!!) and to my mother too, because she helped me to take the pic.

 

I hope you like it! And I wish Ichigo gets many point in this round because I worked very hard!

 

BTW, I sewed Neliel's and Allen's clothes.

Fragonard Laboratory Guided Visit.

 

Nestled in a picturesque setting between Nice and Monaco, at the foot of rocks and poised above the sea, this modern design perfume factory is an interesting contrast to its location in the charming medieval village of Eze. The laboratory uses modern technology to supply all of Fragonard's creams, lotions, and bath gels. The entire manufacturing process is displayed for these cosmetics and beauty products.
