Publisher's Note
A scholarly survey of one of the most productive and exciting periods of English art is long overdue. Much has been written about painters in oil, yet considering the enormous interest in and development of watercolour painting, the very Englishness of that art form, and the fact that the two complementary forms cannot easily be understood in isolation, it is surprising no in-depth study of Victorian painting in oils and watercolours has been undertaken till now. In describing the various schools of thought and artistic movements, the influences, the personalities, the rivalry between 'giants' of the art world, between oil painters and watercolourists, and between the professional societies, Christopher Wood paints a rich and vivid picture not only of the development of art through the nineteenth century, but also of the life and conditions of the times so much reflected in many of the paintings.
