Abstract

The article presents a collection of essays honoring Caroline Arscott, focusing on various intersections of art, ideology, and social commentary. It examines topics such as Antoine Claudet's stereographic photography and its alignment with middle-class values, the materiality of waste in 18th-century Paris, and Samuel Morse's multifaceted career as an artist, inventor, and racist activist. Other essays explore the thematic connections in Albert Moore's paintings, the dual interpretations of Michelangelo by John Ruskin and Walter Pater, and the social realism depicted in the works of artists like George John Pinwell and Hubert von Herkomer. The collection ultimately highlights the complex relationships between art, culture, and societal issues across different historical contexts. [Extracted from the article]
