"this man has no taste. he takes up his brush only to show bottoms and breasts." for diderot, artists like greuze pointed the way forward to a new art, new taste, new morality. his pictures are part of the growth of a new climate in france, part of those almost imperceptible changes in history of which great events like the french revolution are the outcome. with greuze and, here, chardin, we detect a new theme-- that ordi
