Nineteenth Century Art: A Critical History (Fourth edition) by Linda Nochlin, Stephen F. Eisenman, Brian Lukacher, Thomas Crow, Frances K. Pohl, David Llewellyn Phillips (Paperback, 2011)
In the arenas of art and representation, the nineteenth century was a time of questioning, experimentation, discovery and modernization. Artists and designers challenged, as never before, prevailing definitions of art and social order. Nineteenth Century Art: A Critical History embraces many aspects of the so-called 'new' art history - attention to issues of class and gender, reception and spectatorship, racism and Eurocentrism, popular and elite culture, the question of the canon - while at the same time recovering the remarkable vitality, salience and subversiveness of the era's best art. This edition includes five revised chapters, comprising 'Old World, New World: The Encounter of Cultures on the American Frontier', 'Black and White in America', 'Architecture and Design in the Age of Industry' and 'Manet and the Impressionists', together with a substantially expanded chapter on 'Photography, Modernity, and Art'. With 233 illustrations now in colour, including over a dozen brand-new images, this rich and diverse volume will interest students, specialists and anyone fascinated by this dynamic period.
