Academies, Museums and Canons of Art (Art and Its Histories Series)

Editorial Reviews Book Description This lavishly illustrated book examines the variety of ways in which works of art have achieved a position in the so-called canon of Western art. Focusing on a series of case studies of art and institutions in Britain and France from the seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries, the book explores the construction and evolution of canonical values.

This is the first of six volumes in the series Art and Its Histories, created to accompany the Open University course by the same title.
