Product Description

Review
Basing her study on a wide reading of what critics wrote on German art journals and magazines, Lewis fills an important void in our knowledge of the German art scene of the 1880s and 1890s, which set the stage for later shocks and public alienation.
(Choice )

Art for All? Is an incredibly prodigious work of detailed scholarship, unerring detective labor, and brilliant visual analysis. . . . Lewis's years of painstaking research, reflective analysis, and disturbing conclusions about modernism in Wilhelmine Germany undoubtedly will be an invaluable, indeed, an indispensable guide to our understanding of a critical period of cultural history.
(Marion F. Deshmukh Central European History )

With the publication of this lavishly illustrated book by Beth Irwin Lewis, we have now available a wealth of images through which to familiarize ourselves with the look of late nineteenth-century Germany, along with equal riches of historical analysis with which to understand their significance. Every page expands our visual sense of the era.
(Celia Applegate Journal of Modern History )

Review
This book is an accomplishment of which I am truly envious. It is easily the most innovative book on German art written in the last decade or so, and will certainly be the one that sets the standards while also formulating the questions for future studies. Art for All? sets itself a highly ambitious task and fulfills it superbly. There is no other book like it, neither in English nor in German.
(Reinhold Heller, University of Chicago )
