French Sculpture Following the Franco-Prussian War, 1870–80: Realist Allegories and the Commemoration of Defeat

Investigates the role played by the trope of the 'strong woman, fallen man' in re-establishing morale among the French people following the Franco-Prussian War. This book probes the aesthetic discourse of the period concerning the merits of traditional allegorical sculpture versus new-fangled realist sculpture in depicting modern life.
