Description
Book Introduction
The world's most beautiful and intelligent journey begins!
An invitation to the history, culture, and art of Paris, France, to find your true self!
[Art and Humanities Travel], which proposed a new travel program called 'Art and Humanities Travel' in 2015, has returned with the Paris edition.
[Art and Humanities Travel], a journey of art and humanities that combines "art"—discovering the beauty of nature through the eyes of an artist—with "humanities"—experience—a broad sense of humanity—and a journey that breaks away from everyday life—helping readers see the world in a "strange" way, has been loved by countless readers.
The destination of this trip is Paris, France, a city that needs no description.
Here, we will meet people who ponder what true art is and what an artist should do amidst the dramatic revolutions and changes of the times, from the Sun King Louis XIV and the Citizens' Revolution to the Napoleonic era, the introduction of trains and the invention of photography.
Impressionist painters like Le Brun, David, Monet, Manet, and Van Gogh risked their lives answering the questions of a turbulent era through choices.
This book, which follows the culture and history of the era, as well as the artists' paintings, and examines their choices while traveling through the art galleries and museum towns of France, will be a very special book that satisfies the romanticism of art, culture, and travel all at once.
In particular, the fantastic photos of Parisian photographers capture the jewel-like moments of Paris that cannot be captured by the eyes of tourists, making them a delight to the eyes throughout the book.

Into the book
Paris is often called the city of artists.
The phrase "city of revolution, city of fashion and romance" is also very familiar.
There are many other adjectives, but when talking about Paris, the name 'Paris' is enough.
They say Rome wasn't built in a day, and Paris also needed a long history to achieve its current image.
Paris, which rose again from the ruins of the Hundred Years' War, emerged as the city that all European royal families admired during the absolute monarchy of Louis XIV.
But this glorious period did not last long.
Napoleon, who seized power amid the chaos of the French Revolution, during which Louis XVI and Antoinette were beheaded by the citizens, wrote a myth of glory and downfall.
In the process, Paris came to have the image of a 'city of revolution' and a 'city that opened the door to democracy.'
--- p.16
His teacher, Poussin, was respected by many people around him for his vast knowledge and insight into life, to the point that he was called a “philosopher painter.”
He put an incredible amount of effort into his paintings to fully capture his knowledge and insight.
He tried to live as free as possible from power and refused anyone's interference.
On the other hand, Le Brun only painted pictures that Louis XIV would like.
He was a so-called 'customer-first' painter who painted pictures not because he had any instructions but by understanding the king's mind in advance.
Although they were teacher and student, Poussin and Le Brun were very different in one respect.
Poussin's classicism, which was also famous in Italy, was brought to the Paris court by his disciple Le Brun, but contrary to his wishes, it was used as a tool to glorify absolute monarchy. --- p.30
The economic difficulties were more serious than expected.
Monet's family lived frugally, settling further away from Paris to save on living expenses, but they often went hungry because they had nothing to eat.
As I became more desperate, I started asking my friends to lend me money more often.
He barely managed to survive on the money sent by a few friends, including Bazille, Manet, and Zola.
Likewise, there was an incident where poor Renoir brought food from his parents' house and fed them.
There were also times when, in a desperate situation, a painting sold miraculously and I was able to make ends meet for a while.
It was a difficult time.
--- p.213
July 27th.
After lunch, Van Gogh went out to paint as usual.
He went to the wheat fields behind the Chateau de Auvers.
After the harvest, bundles of straw were scattered everywhere.
He aimed the pistol at his left chest and pulled the trigger.
The bullet missed the heart and stopped just before the spine.
Van Gogh fainted, and when he opened his eyes again, the sun was setting.
He returned to the boarding house without finding the gun.
It might have taken longer than usual.
He came back later than usual and was moving strangely, so the boarding house owner was shocked when he looked at him.
The doctor came and Dr. Gachet was also called in.
Van Gogh said he shot himself.
The next day the police came and Theo left everything behind and came running.
Van Gogh said.
“Don’t cry.
“I did it because I believed that everything would work out well.”

Publisher's Review
The world's most beautiful and intelligent journey begins!
An invitation to the history, culture, and art of Paris, France, to find your true self!
[Art and Humanities Travel], which proposed a new travel program called 'Art and Humanities Travel' in 2015, has returned with the Paris edition.

Here, we will meet people who ponder what true art is and what an artist should do amidst the dramatic revolutions and changes of the times, from the Sun King Louis XIV and the Citizens' Revolution to the Napoleonic era, and the introduction of trains and the invention of photography.

This book, which follows the culture and history of the era, as well as the artists' paintings, and examines their choices while traveling through the art galleries and museum towns of France, will be a very special book that satisfies the romanticism of art, culture, and travel all at once.
In particular, the fantastic photos of Parisian photographers capture the jewel-like moments of Paris that cannot be captured by the eyes of tourists, making them a delight to the eyes throughout the book.
Parisian artists answer questions of the times and find their true selves.
An invitation to the essence of Paris's Belle Époque era.
Through this book, we will explore the history of Paris and broaden our appreciation of art by strolling through Paris's famous landmarks, including the Palace of Versailles, the Louvre, and the Musée d'Orsay, which bear the traces of artists.
But there is something more important than this.
It's about gaining wisdom through the stories of artists of that time.
Le Brun, David, Manet, Monet, Van Gogh.
All the artists featured in this book took on the weighty questions of their time and set sail into the dark night sea.
As each chapter of their voyage concludes, we will see what questions they were asked and what answers they gave.
As a result, you will be able to see the essence of what created the 'Belle Époque' era, the most beautiful days in Paris.
Part 1 covers the 200 years from the absolute monarchy of Louis XIV to the French Revolution, the era of Napoleon I, and the Restoration of the monarchy.
This era is one of the most splendid and tragic in French history.
Artists Loubrun and David, from the absolute monarchy and Napoleonic eras, answer the question of how to respond to changing times.
The period of the second half of the 60-year period was also a time of great upheaval, experiencing both the greatest prosperity and the worst frustration.
In the era of photography and the development of trains, impressionist painters such as Manet, Monet, and Van Gogh risked their lives to answer.
We will observe their lives and art along with the history and culture of that era.
In this way, we will learn the answers they gave to the times in their own fierce manner.
Detailed commentary on art, artists, culture, and history.
A deep and broad humanistic perspective on humanity
A vivid depiction of the scene, as if you were in Paris, France.
The best book of the year that will satisfy three birds with one stone!
The true essence of the art and humanities journey is revealed in the three-dimensional and clear picture explanations.
Loubrun, who enjoyed the absolute trust of the king during the reign of Louis XIV, is not well known to us today.
He compares his paintings with those of his teacher Poussin and clearly shows the differences between the two.
However, it naturally connects the secrets of the splendor of the Palace of Versailles with a solid explanation of the Louis XIV era, explaining why Loubrun had no choice but to act that way in that era, and points out the meaning of Loubrun's choice.
By naturally connecting the tips for properly enjoying the Louvre Museum, you can experience the joy of naturally and three-dimensionally organizing the era of the absolute monarchy of Louis XIV, the choices of an artist named Louvre, and the Louvre Museum in your mind.
When you go to see Impressionism, you first come across a cafe in Paris.
As I wander through the cafes of the Parisian alleyways, where Impressionist painters loudly discuss the future of painting, I am deeply immersed in their serious approach to art.
Later, we will visit the grave of Baudelaire, who became the ideological mentor of Impressionism, and remember him. We will also read the hidden meaning and the artist's intentions in each painting along with the historical background that led to the exhibition of rejected paintings.
Through a Parisian photographer's dawn photos of Montmartre, you might meet them staggering drunk 150 years ago.
In addition to this three-dimensional and fascinating commentary that explains the era, individuals, and paintings, the author's outstanding insight into the times, his simple and unadorned explanations, and the interpretations that reveal deep insights into humanity will leave you speechless.
Once you read it, you can't put it down.
The best liberal arts lectures and fantastic photos of Parisians in one book!
They say this is an era of humanities flood.
However, there is also a reality where the humanities, rather than fulfilling their original mission of providing new insights by allowing us to look deeply into the world and ourselves, end up serving only as another means of achieving success or satisfying intellectual vanity.
Professor Kim Tae-jin, the author of this book, does not stop at lofty intellectual satisfaction with the humanities, but rather lightly interprets them through storytelling. However, through the prism of a "voyage to find one's true self" through "questions of the times" and "individual answers," he presents a weighty insight into life that is by no means light.
Moreover, by combining humanities and art and adding travel to them, it talks about ‘humanities in everyday life.’
“It was more fun and informative than any book I’ve ever read.”, “This is definitely the best book of the year.”, “I couldn’t be happier the whole time I was reading it.” Many people who saw the first book on the Italian Renaissance in the Arts and Humanities series gave it a thumbs up, and it was so well-received that I always received an encore request wherever I visited for a lecture.
Thanks to your support, I was able to make this second trip to Paris and meet more readers.
