"Fierce Friends: Artists and Animals, 1750-1900 examines a critical period in our evolving relationship with animals. Between the mid-eighteenth and the early twentieth centuries, the philosophical legacy of the Enlightenment, the mechanical inventions of the Industrial Revolution, and the intellectual transformation sparked by Charles Darwin undermined many of the traditional roles assigned to animals, and overturned our view of them as ..."
"Of all the revolutionary changes brought about by the industrial age perhaps the most extraordinary and far-reaching was the transformation of light. Scientists described its hidden laws to the public for the first time. Artists found radical ways of depicting it. Inventors found new ways of making it. The lives of ordinary people changed forever as streets, shops, theaters, and their own homes were brilliantly illuminated, first by gas ..."

"Most people who enjoy watercolours think of the medium as fresh, intimate and congenial. Many would naturally associate it with the lesser arts and would not consider it to be very old. Nevertheless, the medium, far from being new, boasts a long and complex history, which has placed watercolour at the very centre of the inter-relationship between artist and public during the last three centuries. This catalogue represents the rich tradi ..."
"The personal and professional history of van Gogh and Gauguin—their rivalrous friendship and brief period of collaboration in Arles in 1888—constitutes one of the most dramatically revealing sagas in the history of modern art. In many ways, it is the quintessential story about the beginnings of modern avant-garde practice as it developed in the wake of the last Impressionist exhibition, held in 1886. Gauguin and van Gogh were, by circum ..."

"Perhaps no nation has been so thoroughly shaped by its dreams as has America, and perhaps no other dreams have been captured on camera as often and as diversely as America's. The mythic American Dream has been the subject of photographic documentation since the 1840s, when photographers first began traveling to the New World in search of subjects. From an unknown photographer's picture of newborn George B. Billings Rego, scion of an imm ..."

"Sculpture is commonly associated with the three dimensions of volume, while color is claimed as the exclusive means of expression for painters. However, polychromy was widely used in sculpture from the Middle Ages to the Baroque and beginning in 1814, there was a renewed interest in antique polychromy. Its effect in sculpture became visible several decades later. This book sheds light on this neglected aspect and leads to a better under ..."
"The paintings of Vincent van Gogh remain as relevant as ever, exerting an ever-profound influence on generations of artists. Gogh Modern attempts to explain this influence through example, presenting an overview of major postwar artists whose work displays a strong relationship with van Gogh or whose work it would be hard to imagine without the existence of van Gogh. Thus in the paintings of Georg Baselitz, Willem de Kooning and Anselm ..."
