This book elaborates on the social and cultural phenomenon of
national schools during the nineteenth century, via the less
studied field of sculpture and using Belgium as a case study. 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.
