Few painters can give us so glossy and accurate a mirror image of high society as Impressionist master James Tissot (1836 - 1902). Like his friend and contemporary Whistler, he was at home both in Paris, where he lived and exhibited in the 1860s, and in London, where he spent a successful decade after the fall of the Paris Commune in 1871. And like the well heeled cosmopolitan society he frequented, Tissot's art belongs to an international milieu of high fashion on both sides of the English channel. His ladies pose in costumes and amid decor that always reflects the latest fashion, and they indulge with their gentlemen companions in the pleasurable rituals of the finest in country living, the boating party, or the ballroom. One recalls that Tissot's parents were both in the fashion business in his native France.
