by Matthew Hunter (Author)
In late seventeenth-century London, the most provocative images were produced not by artists, but by scientists. This book reveals that these natural philosophers shaped Restoration London's emergent artistic cultures by forging collaborations with court painters, penning art theory, and designing triumphs of baroque architecture.
