STUDIES IN NINETEENTH-CENTURY ART AND VISUAL CULTURE

XIX

XIX. Studies in Nineteenth-Century Art and Visual Culture is a

series of scholarly volumes dedicated to western art and visual culture of the ‘long’ nineteenth century. Its aim is to make new and innovative scholarly research as well as unpublished archival documents available, through the publication of mono- authored and multi-authored books as well as scholarly editions of original source material.

This volume analyses the international mobility of sculptors and their work in the nineteenth century. The creation of nation-states at that time coincided with an increasingly international outlook shared by artists, their commissioners, sellers, buyers and critics. Sculptors were encouraged to study and work abroad, and were recognized for their foreign experiences and successes. As they were very much depen- dent on commissions, they had to travel to provide for their revenues. While abroad, they were nonetheless expected to represent their nation and showcase their ‘national school’

with its specific characteristics. The essays in this collection reflect upon the theoretical and practical implications of the many aspects of trans nationality, travel and (cultural) mobility for nineteenth-century sculptors, their work and their careers, by addressing the role of, among others, education, execu tion, commissions, exhibitions, art criticism and the art market. The main focus is on French, Belgian and Italian sculptors and their works, and well-known as well as lesser-known sculptors are discussed, through general articles and case studies.
