On September 19, 1783, the Montgolfier brothers demonstrated their new invention, the hot-air balloon or \u003cem\u003emontgolfière\u003c\/em\u003e, at the Palace of Versailles before a large crowd, including Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. Considered too dangerous for human passengers, the experimental vessel carried a sheep, a duck, and a hen in its basket. The balloon flew for about eight minutes, covered a distance of roughly two miles, and reached an altitude of more than 1,500 feet before landing safely. The animals’ balloon ride caused a sensation and the first human flight followed a few months later.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy the end of 1783, Louis XVI had ennobled the Montgolfier family in recognition of the brothers’ important achievements, which perhaps prompted a royal celebration for the animals like the one depicted in the book. In Gibert’s fantasy, the animals anger the king at the fete by describing him as “no bigger than the tiniest snail” when viewed from high above the ground, and Louis imprisons them in the Bastille. While the direct role of talking animals in the storming of the Bastille in 1789 can’t quite be supported by historical evidence, this book does vividly evoke the stirring developments in aeronautics that took place right around the time of the French Revolution.

After losing her father at age twelve and facing financial insecurity, she fought to gain access to artistic training and opportunity. She was pressured to marry at age twenty, to an art dealer who both helped and harmed her career. Vigée Le Brun deployed her intelligence and beauty to attract powerful clients, who relied on her to style the personal identities they projected to the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVigée Le Brun’s salons were the talk of Paris, and she became court painter to Marie Antoinette. Then came the French Revolution, when marginalized groups demanded change to centuries-old systems of oppression. Vigée Le Brun was forced to reexamine her alliances and run for her life, taking her young daughter but leaving her husband behind. Making her way through the countrysides and capitals of Europe and Russia—including a stay at the imperial court of Catherine the Great—the artist conquered fear and adversity to refashion her life and art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAges thirteen and up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJordana Pomeroy is director and CEO of the Currier Museum of Art and former chief curator at the National Museum of Women in the Arts. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Lively, informed and carefully produced to engage an entry-level audience, its focus on an “Old Mistress” will contribute to the levelling up still so desperately needed in the story of art. \u003ci\u003eDaring\u003c\/i\u003e reveals a painter whose career was remarkable because of her sex, but whose work was exceptional regardless of it.”\u003cbr\u003e—Franny Moyle, \u003ci\u003eThe Art Newspaper\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“This engaging biography contains detailed descriptions of setting and cultural context that convey a clear time line and sense of causation, as well as peeks into the artist’s intimate life.”\u003cbr\u003e—Rebecca Jung, \u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Pomeroy’s eye-catching book details Vigée Le Brun’s life as well as the art, people, and locations that influenced her work.”\u003cbr\u003e—Vi Kwartler, \u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Beautifully executed; a visual and narrative treat.”\u003cbr\u003e—\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e112 pages\u003cbr\u003e8 3\/4 x 10 inches\u003cbr\u003e81 color and 3 b\/w illustrations \u003cbr\u003eISBN 978-1-947440-10-4\u003cbr\u003ehardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGetty Publications\u003cbr\u003eImprint: Getty Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2025\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GETTY TRUST PUBLICATIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45863407157440,"sku":"9781947440104","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8502\/files\/9781947440104_5c5e9a12-10cf-455c-874f-05508ff4029f.jpg?v=1747268793"},{"product_id":"plush-jpgm-getty-teddy-bear","title":"Plush Teddy Bear - JPGM Getty Teddy Bear","description":"\u003cp\u003ePlush bear wearing a sweatshirt featuring the bust of J.
