This book tells the story of Germany's rich, flourishing, and diversified world of art in the last decades of the 19th century--a world that has until recently been eclipsed by the events of the 20th century. Basing her narrative on a close reading of contemporary periodicals, and lavishly complementing it with cartoons and other illustrations from these publications, Beth Irwin Lewis provides the first systematic, comprehensive study of that German art world.

Seller's Description:
Near Fine. 8 " x 10" Signed by Author. This is the first systematic, comprehensive study of the German art world in the last decades of the 19th century, based on reading in contemporary periodicals; it focuses on how critics and the public responded to new forms of painting that emerged in the 1880s, when the explosive growth of art exhibitions supported by local governments across a recently unified Germany was accompanied by greatly expanded attendance of a new mass public; it examines the social, cultural, and economic factors that led to the rapid acceptance and dominance of the new modern art in the 1890s; the success of modern art fragmented the art world as modern artists turned away from an often unreceptive public, leading to a growing alienation of the public from modern artists, and an increasing contempt for the public on the part of artists; includes a section of color plates and many illustrations from periodicals of the time (red, black, white & yellow cover with very slight edgewear, previous owner's name on half-title page, author's signature on title page; this is a very large, heavy volume)
