About this ebook:
Meet nineteenth-century eccentric strongman, Eugene Pertuiset – aka ‘The Tyrolean Hercules’ – an adventurer, fortune-hunter, inventor, mesmerist, close friend of the novelist Alexandre Dumas, media darling of fin de siècle Paris, and the inspiration for one of Edouard Manet’s famous last paintings, M. Pertuiset, the Lion Hunter, whose comic misadventures took him from the squalid silver boom towns of South America and the Patagonian wilderness to the richest Paris salons and bohemian decadence of La Belle Époque. This is the little-known true story of the larger-than-life 19th century character,, whose odd friendship with the artist marked a milestone in the history of the modern art movement.More than 100 illustrations capture Eugene’s world and France's turbulent transition to the modern era - its technology, culture, and politics of colonialism. These are accompanied by fascinating vignettes that explore the role of artists, the fickleness of art critics, and the impact of modern journalism and photography on the traditional visual arts.
