A real contribution to art history, introducing the reader to a
rich mix of the familiar and the unfamiliar... the book certainly
taught me things about the Victorians that I either did not know or
had not thought about with sufficient imagination
*The Guardian*
A wonderful introduction to the sheer vibrancy of the Victorian
era... genuinely impressive
*The Evening Standard*
