Description

The Victorian Artist examines the rise of biographical literature regarding British artists between 1870 and 1910. Published by Cambridge University Press, this study by Julie Codell analyzes how different narrative modes, such as gossip, anecdotes, and serialization, shaped the public perception of creators during this era. By exploring various genres including autobiographies, family biographies, biographical histories, and dictionaries, the text identifies the many conflicting identities assigned to artists both as individuals and as a collective group. This work provides a deep look at how biographical writing and images worked together to define the artist in late Victorian Britain.
