Nineteenth-century ArtFrom Romanticism to Art Nouveau

Format: Hardback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £19.04
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

The 19th-century holdings of the Walters Art Gallery are unique among museum collections of art from this period. Not only were William T. Walters and his son Henry unique in collecting the art of their own 'Gilded Age', but they also acquired works across many key artistic periods.

This new title presents the highlights of this amazing collection. These include paintings by Ingres and Delacroix, landscapes by painters associated with the Barbizon school and the 'transportation' series of watercolors that William Walters bought from Honore Daumier in 1864. However, it is in the field of academic art, which dominated French art during the Second Empire (1852-70) that The Walters excels.
