Title: Artist and empire
Description: Summary:"Here, leading scholars focus on how these artworks tell the vivid history of life under British rule in a survey that ranges from sixteenth-century colonialism through to the projection of Britain's imperial might in the late nineteenth century and its decline in the post-war era. Exploring how artists have represented and critiques the diverse places, people and events that constituted the Empire, this is a vital book on a subject of broad contemporary interest"-- Book jacket
