Zusammenfassung:These essays examine Victorian painting in the light of this 'woman question' by analysing the change in representation of the family, romance, social issues such as emigration and colonialism, the use of the female nude and the traditions of portraiture, history-painting and still life. The art and artists are considered in a socio-political context, and the connections between Victorian sexism, racism and the class system are examined. These essays bring to light much previously unknown work (especially by women) and reappraise many well-known paintings.
