Victorian Painting In Oils And Watercolours
Christopher Wood. Antique Collector's Club, 1996. In describing the various schools of thought and artistic movement, the influences, the personalities, the rivalry between 'giants' of the art world, between oil painters and watercolorists, and between the professional societies, Christopher Wood paints a rich and vivid picture not only of the development of art throughout the nineteenth century, but also of the life and the times reflected in many of the paintings. This is a unique study of a fascinating period of English art, and one which, thanks largely to the author, has now received due recognition. 210 pages.
