Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Scottish painter Erskine Nicol (1825-1904) produced more than 600 scenes of Irish life. This book investigates the reasons for their success in Edinburgh, London, Paris or New York, using concepts in cultural studies. Nicol adapted Victorian prejudices, as well as anti-Irish clichés, in his pictures of Ireland. Thus, he painted caricatures suggesting that he complied with prevalent imperialist ideas. Yet, some of his canvasses are ambivalent, as they highlight the injustices generated by the British regulation of Ireland's agricultural system.

However, his realism was limited because such pictures were difficult to sell. So, this volume explores his motivations, to see if they came from his fondness for stereotypes, his compassion for the Irish or his commercial ambitions. …
