William Mulready


Book Description

Kathryn Heleniak demonstrates how intimately Mulready's paintings were related to the social conditions of his time. His portrayal of blacks is linked to the abolition of slavery and to the British colonial experience; his children's genre is analysed in the light of nineteenth-century attitudes to childhood and sexuality, and in the light of Mulready's own deeply-rooted pessimism about human nature.
