Inglorious Artists

Art World Satire and the Emergence of a Capitalist Art Market in Paris, 1750-1850

Beschreibung

Inglorious Artists studies how artists used graphic satire as a vehicle to criticize the emergence of a free market for art in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The starving or inglorious artist was the protagonist of their imagery. This data-driven study explores the evolving trope of the inglorious artist, his antagonists, and his environment through an exploration of 532 printed satirical images.
