The book examines French military paintings of the 1850s and 1860s, when the genre experienced a new lease of life. The principal concern is to recreate the art-historical and social context and to consider the explosion of military subjects in their own right. The large paintings’ entertainment value effectively communicated political agendas, catering to the emerging phenomenon of mass spectatorship and giving rise to innovate compositions.
