This collection of essays by musicologists and art historians explores the reciprocal influences between music and painting during the 19th century, a critical period of gestation when instrumental music was identified as the paradigmatic expressive art and theoretically aligned with painting in the formulation ut pictura musica. Under music's influence, painting approached the threshold of abstraction and concurrently many composers cultivated pictorial effects in their music.
