Thomas Eakins and the Cultures of Modernity

Thomas Eakins and the Cultures of Modernity

by A C Braddock (Author)

Synopsis

Situates one of Philadelphia's greatest realist painter in relation to the historical discourse of cultural difference. This work shows that modern anthropological perceptions of 'culture', attributed to Eakins by many art historians, did not become current until after the artist's death, in 1916.
