The book delves into the evolution of the modern artist concept during the nineteenth century, highlighting the interconnected rise of museums and professional critics. By examining visual materials and literary texts, it reveals a cultural shift in the perception of art. Siegel argues that the artistic debates linked to modernism and postmodernism trace back to this vibrant era, challenging the notion that it was merely conservative and stable.
