Chapters concentrate on three major artists, Théodore Géricault (1791–1824), Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863) and Claude Monet (1840–1926), and their particular approach to and interpretation of this unitarian concept.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, philosophy and cultural history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56517634818422,"sku":"9781032465388","price":206.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_37564866_463ac90e-05e4-45ac-b62c-7a4bc2670373.jpg?v=1762180736","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781032465388-art-monist-philosophy-in-nineteenth-ce","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
