J.M.W. Turner and the Subject of History is an in-depth consideration of the artist's complex response to the challenge of creating history paintings in the early nineteenth century. Structured around the linked themes of making and unmaking, of creation and destruction, this book examines how Turner's history paintings reveal changing notions of individual and collective identity at a time when the British Empire was simultaneously developing and fragmenting. Turner similarly emerges as a conflicted subject, one whose artistic modernism emerged out of a desire to both continue and exceed his eighteenth-century aesthetic background by responding to the altered political and historical circumstances of the nineteenth century.

'Art in England: Notes and Studies' by Dutton Cook is a collection of biographical studies and excerpts chronicling the nation's art history. While not a formal history, Cook's carefully selected materials highlight the lives and influence of artists who may be less renowned but were of mark in their periods. Readers will be drawn in by the stories of artists who played significant roles in shaping the character and progress of art in England. Cook's book is a valuable tool for students and the general public alike, shedding light on the struggles, trials, troubles, and successes of England's past art scene and its relevance to its present and future. From early art schools to the Royal Academy, from Hogarth to Turner and Ruskin, this book provides a glimpse into the past that informs the present.
