Exploring the relationship between visual art and literature in the
Romantic period, this book makes a claim for a sister-arts 'moment'
when the relationship between painting, sculpture, pottery and
poetry held special potential for visual artists, engravers and
artisans. Elaborating these cultural tensions and associations
through a number of case studies, Thora Brylowe sheds light on
often untold narratives of English labouring craftsmen and artists
as they translated the literary into the visual. Brylowe
investigates examples from across the visual spectrum including
artefacts, such as Wedgwood's Portland Vase, antiquarianism through
the work of William Blake, the career of engraver John Landseer,
and the growing influence of libraries and galleries in the period,
particularly Boydell's Shakespeare Gallery. Brylowe artfully traces
the shifting cultural connections between the imaginative word and
the image in a period that saw new print technologies deluge
Britain with its first mass media.
