Published in 1847, this three-volume work surveys Christian painting and sculpture. The author, Alexander Lindsay (1812–80), an aristocrat who travelled extensively in Italy, strongly influenced art collecting, and his work on the Victorian construction of morals and artistic taste remains instructive.
