Books by Pamela Gerrish Nunn

During the Victorian period there developed a new anxiety about male-female relations and roles in modern society. This book of essays examines Victorian painting in the light of this "woman question". The art and artists are considered in a socio-political context.

It is the result of extensive research by Pamela Gerrish Nunn, whose work on Pre-Raphaelite women artists has done so much to re-assess the art history of the Victorian period.
