French twists
Article Abstract:
The intoxicating eighteenth-century world of rockling adventures and dissolute aristocrats, of watchful chaperones and predatory beaux, of innocence preserved or defiled are devilishly evoked in the works of Laclos and Thackeray and are set to enliven the princely splendors of the Wrightsman Galleries at the Metropolitan Museum. An exhibition is held showing French portraits.
