Exhibition Catalogue

First published in the 1870s, the Summer Exhibition Illustrated presents the highlights of each year's show and is a fascinating barometer of changing artistic tastes. With illustrations of a wide range of the works on display, installation shots of the galleries, an essay on portraiture by the art historian Richard Cork and informative introductions to each of the rooms, the book is an indispensable record of this most popular event.
