Modern Painting

Irish novelist and art critic George Moore writes his opinions on controversial issues within the 19th-century art world, including photography as an art form, sex in art, the relationship between religion and art and a rejection of Realism for Impressionism. These ideals that the author addresses all inspired the beginnings of modern art. Moore's opinions seem shockingly biased and sometimes prejudiced, but do give the reader a 19th-century perspective.
