Scenes and Traces of the English Civil War, Hardback Book

Scenes and Traces of the English Civil War Hardback

Hardback

Description

The English Civil War has become a frequent point of reference in contemporary political debate.

A bitter and bloody series of conflicts, it shook the very foundations of seventeenth-century Britain.

This is the first attempt to portray the visual legacy of this period, as passed down, revisited and periodically reworked over two and a half centuries of subsequent English history. Highly regarded art historian Stephen Bann deftly interprets the mass of visual evidence accessible today, from ornate tombs and statues to surviving sites of vandalism and iconoclasm, public signage and historical paintings of subjects, events and places.
