Lucy Hartley identifies a new language for speaking about beauty, which begins to be articulated from the 1830s in a climate of political reform and becomes linked to ideals of equality, liberty and individuality. Including numerous illustrations, the volume offers a fresh interdisciplinary understanding of art's relation to its public.
