British Art: Global Contexts Transculturation in British Art, 1770-1930, (Hardcover)

Examining painting, photography, illustration, sculpture and architecture from 1770 to 1930, authors explore art that shaped, negotiated, and represented transculturation in the British Empire and in countries under British colonial influences (Congo, Japan, and Turkey). Authors analyze works' cross-cultural meanings in two transcultural dimensions: changing interpretations of single works over time for colonial and postcolonial spectators, and across space in works' replications or multiples in both metropole and colonial spaces.
