Book Description
Between the completion of the Erie Canal and the outbreak of the Civil War, New York City grew to become an economic and cultural center of international importance. This magnificent book discusses the proliferation of the visual arts during this exciting era as well as the development of an increasingly sophisticated New York audience for these arts. The book is lavishly illustrated with hundreds reproductions of works from the period. This book accompanies an exhibition that opens at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on 11 September 2000 and ends 7 January 2001.
