The role, importance of and emphasis on certain aspects of national identity evolved throughout the century, while a diverse array of criteria were indicated by commissioners, art critics, or artists, that supposedly constituted a 'national sculpture.' By confronting the role and impact of the four most crucial actors within the artistic field (politics, education, exhibitions, public commissions) with a linear timeframe, this book offers a chronological as well as a thematic approach. Artists covered include Guillaume Geefs, Eugene Simonis, Charles Van der Stappen, Julien Dillens, Paul Devigne, Constantin Meunier, and George Minne. 650 0 Sculpture, Belgian |y19th century. 650 0 Sculpture, Belgian |xFrench influences |y19th century. 650 0 Nationalism and art |zBelgium. 650 7 Nationalism and art. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01033874 650 7 Sculpture, Belgian. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01109565 650 7 Sculpture, Belgian |xFrench influences. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01109566 651 7 Belgium. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210278 648 7 1800-1899 |2fast 830 0 Routledge research in art history 902 lt |bm |6a |7m |dv |f1 |e20171214 904 lt |ba |hm |cb |e20171213 914 (OCoLC)ocn990032764 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20240501 |eprocessed |f990032764
