200167551Aldershot: Ashgate 2001. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. The modernist aesthetic and later Nazi ideology split German Romantic painting into two opposed phases an early progressive movement represented by Caspar David Friedrich 1774-1840 and Philipp Otto Runge 1777-1810 and a later reactionary one - epitomized by Friedrich Overbeck 1789-1869 and Peter von Cornelius 1783-1867. In this rich and engaging book Mitchell Frank explores the continuities between these two phases to reconstruct the historical position that existed in the nineteenth century and to look once again at the Nazarenes - and Overbeck in particular - as a fully integrated part of the Romantic movement. His innovative book is crucial to an understanding of German Romanticism and the legacy of this period in European art." 64 illustrations. Tall octavo. Original black cloth binding with gilt titles. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. Ashgate hardcover books
