Opis

This is the first book to address how the relationship between two ends of the British Empire played out in the visual arts. Examining a wide range of media, its authors demonstrate the complex nature of empire in India, compare these empires to British imperialism in Ireland, and explore the contemporary relationship between what are now two independent countries through a consideration of works of art in Irish collections, supplemented by a consideration of Irish architecture and of contemporary Irish visual culture.
