Munch’s The Scream. Van Gogh’s Starry Night. Rodin’s The Thinker. Monet’s Water Lilies. Constable’s landscapes. The nineteenth-century gave us a wealth of artistic riches so memorable in their genius that we can picture many of them at an instant. However, at the time their avant-garde nature was the cause of much controversy.
Professor Laurie Schneider Adams brings to life the paintings, sculpture, photography and architecture of the period vividly with her infectious enthusiasm for art and detailed explorations of individual works. Offered fascinating biographical details and the relevant social, political and cultural context, the reader is left with a deep appreciation for the works and an understanding of both how revolutionary they were at the time and their enduring appeal.
