Soon after the middle of the nineteenth century, the Romantic tradition in art produced a surprising new phenomenon: a library form of painting aiming to express only the inexpressible. The Symbolists were an assorted collection of painters, and very few of them, as it happens, were talents of the first rank. But what they did - and they work of their most distinguished representative, Paul Gauguin, shows this most clearly - was to liberate the artist, once and for all, from the duty of depicting what would be seen. Colours which reflect only the artist's state of mind ; beings that belong only to dream or hallucination ; a remarkably consistent refusal to tell, as other painters did, an unambiguous story with a describable meaning - these are the factors linking Symbolist painters who, stylistically, are at opposite poles. Art Nouveau, unlike Symbolism, was a style - but it was Symbolism that freed form, and consequently design, from dependence on tradition, and made possible the stylized vegetable forms - even the patterning - from which the grace of Art Nouveau derives. Alastair Mackintosh, a former officer of the Greater London Arts Association, is a frequent contributor to Arts and Artists, writing mainly on contemporary art.

With more than four hundred color illustrations, this concise and authoritative introduction covers every major development in the visual arts in the last one hundred years. Unlike most surveys of this period, Modern Art begins with an in-depth look at Impressionism, before carrying the reader through to the Post-Modernism of the present. Modern Art is an ideal introduction for those new to the field and a highly informed and useful source (complete with chronologies and bibliographies) for the initiated. Anyone seeking a gallery of the masterpieces of twentieth-century art, together with a comprehensive survey of the period, will find no better single volume.
