A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. 234pp. A study on how public appreciation of art is moulded by circumstances. The book primarily covers the hundred years between 1780 and 1880 and asks why painters who had been ignored or despised were 'rediscovered'.in the 18th century. Winner of the 1977 Mitchell Prize in Art History.
