This chronological anthology of recent critical scholarship on 19th-century European art represents a wide range of current methodologies and issues. The book features recent scholarship — since the mid-1980s; represents a diversity of methods; deals with major figures of 19th-century art; emphasizes French art — reflecting the interests of recent scholarship and a contemporary focus; and focuses on the concerns of recent scholarship — e.g., the recurrence of themes such as the female nude, the role of the critic, and exhibitions and institutions.
