Zusammenfassung:	This article explores the increasingly central critical concept of the English, and later British, "School" in art, ca. 1880–1910. After briefly surveying the work of several professional critics writing in the press, it then focuses on Marion H. Spielmann's prolific writings across varied venues—journalism, his editorship of The Magazine of Art, a monumental scholarly study of Victorian "New Sculpture," the catalog of British art at the 1908 Franco-British Exhibition, and multiple entries for the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica. The essay analyzes his conservative yet populist views of Victorian art through lenses of emerging late-century notions of Britishness, competing national cultural identities, and conflicted views about modernity in art.
