Publisher's Synopsis

In 19th century French art, the ideal of aesthetic liveliness gave way to anti-illusionism and aesthetic materialism; the image of the human body was subject to radical change. This book examines how the materialistic and deterministic conceptions of man (and his body) in nascent French physiology informed this development and how artists confronted it - by creating new images of the body.
