It tells us a great deal more about the late Victorian and Edwardian England than it does about Greece or Rome. This book is about the Victorian neo-classical movement in painting from 1860 -1914, as personified in particular by the careers of Leighton, Alma-Tadema, Poynter and G. F. Watts. All four artists were in their different ways of Olympian figures, and all those to great heights of fame, fortune and pressed the chip. The classical painting dominated the Royal Academy for over a generation, and not the least of their achievements was to bring back the Nude in the English painting." -- from the front fold over panel blurb.
