Description
This study is part of a series which, after describing the social, political, religious and intellectual climate in which the visual arts developed in a particular period, traces the genesis and attainments of the painting, sculpture, architecture and luxury arts of the period, the features that distinguish its style and the artists who practised it. This volume follows the developments that took place during the nineteenth century in all areas of art and shows how technological progress had direct consequences on artistic expression.
