Summary: "Propos de peintre, première série: de David à Degas" by Jacques-Émile Blanche is a collection of art critiques and personal reflections written in the early 20th century. The work is structured around discussions of famous painters, including both their artistic trajectories and personal anecdotes involving their lives and interactions with the author.

At the start of the text, the author sets a tone of nostalgia and introspection, reminiscing about his connections and experiences with various influential painters of the 19th century, including Fantin-Latour. Through a detailed preface by Marcel Proust, the reader is introduced to the world of art criticism and the nuanced dynamics between artists and their reception in society. The opening portion highlights Blanche's appreciation for Fantin-Latour's work and character, delineating a rich tapestry of social and artistic life in Paris.
