Softcover. Condition: VG+. Color-pictorial wraps with black lettering; 160 pp. with 133 works in color and bw. Catalogue from the exhibition held July to October 2009 celebrating the impact of Spanish culture on British art and collecting from the 1790s to the 1930s. Spain was still relatively unkown in the 18th century, but the fascination of British artists and collectors created a sensation in Britain. In a series of essays ranging from the age of Goya to that of Picasso, scholars consider how the pioneering tatses of individual travellers, painters and connoisseurs changed the ways in which Spain was depicted and, consequently, understood in Britain. Beautiful illustrations and excellent text material.
