This political ideal requires of course an integration of the emotions and reason which only art can provide. The rise and fall of the Hudson River School of American painting is treated in this lecture along with the perverse school of British imperial art which emerged with the figure of John Ruskin, the Pre-Raphaelite Society, hyper-realism and its twin impressionism is also outlined at length in this presentation.
