Writing the Lives of Painters: Biography and Artistic Identity in Britain 1760-1810 - Oxford English Monographs
Junod, Karen (Lecturer in English literature, English Department, University of Fribourg)
This book explores the development of artists' biographies in the cultural context of eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Britain. It argues that the proliferation of a myriad biographical forms mirrored the privileging of artistic originality and difference within an art world that had yet to generate a coherent 'British School' of painting.
