Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Les Peintres de Lyon du Quatorzi�me au Dix-Huiti�me Si�cle
Lyon est rest� en dehors de l'action directe, personnelle, du son verain. Lyon n'a connu que par occasion les entreprises et les �l� gances des gens de cour; il n'a pas eu le b�n�fice de l'initiative bardie, de l'entra�nement que le souverain a exerc� dans le domaine de l'art et du travail. Lyon, n'�tant assur� que de ses propres ressources, n'a pas fourni � ses ouvriers l'occasion de parvenir � des hauteurs que, dans des milieux diff�rents, d'autres ouvriers atteignaient sans trop d'efforts.
