SIMIONI, Ana Paula Cavalcanti. The trip to Paris by Brazilian artists of the 19th century. Tempo Soc. [online]. 2005, vol.17, n.1, pp. 343-366. ISSN 0103-2070.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0103-20702005000100015.

This paper analyzes the role the Académie Julian, a private academy, played as it received a great part of artists who went to Paris between the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. Three themes are discussed: what they studied, the importance of the institution for the female artists and how esthetic novelties that were cropping up in Paris at the time were absorbed and reinterpreted by those artists.
