Product Description
Product Description
Albert Moore (1841-93) was one of the most important late-Victorian artists. He employed the female figure to embody abstract systems of ideal beauty, and created many defining images of the Aesthetic Movement. This book presents a view of the artist's allegedly reclusive personality, and seeks to establish him as a major figure and a significant precursor of Modernism.

A beautiful new book on Victorian artist
5 Jun 2000
Format:Hardcover
It is wonderful that Phaidon Press has decided to publish an art book on this lesser known Victorian artist. More a Neo-Classical Romantic artist than a Pre-Raphaelite, Albert Moore creates langerous scenes of lovely maidens clad in classical garb (often white flowing togas). For their aesthetic quality alone, the paintings by this artist are little jewels. Phaidon has produced an attractive book with scholarly text that befits the artist and his work.
