9780300077407: The Changing Status of the Artist

Synopsis

This book focuses attention on the theme of the artist and especially the changing status of the artist in the early modern period. In a series of case studies--some devoted to a single artist and others dealing more broadly with artistic practice--the book explores and questions the widely held notion that the modern idea of the artist emerged in the later fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.

This is the second of six volumes in the series Art and Its Histories, created to accompany the Open University course by the same title.
