520 1 $a"The Grosvenor Gallery was located at a fashionable upper-class address: 135-137 New Bond Street, London. After giving final orders to dressmakers and tailors on New Bond Street, its visitors were free to enter the cool interior of this temple of contemplation and suspend ordinary time. This book is richly illustrated with many examples of the art the audience would have seen on such an occasion.".
520 8 $a"In the hands of an innovative team consisting of Sir Coutts Lindsay, his wife Blanche Lindsay, and two managers, Charles Halle and Joseph Comyns Carr, the gallery developed a reputation as a leading exhibition space for British and Continental artists during the late Victorian period. What factors contributed to its rise to prominence on the London exhibition circuit? How did it maintain that respected place in light of the diversification of showcases during this period?".
520 8 $a"Central to this book is a close examination of the paintings which were shown at the gallery during its fourteen-year run, how they were received by the critics, and which movements were represented."--BOOK JACKET.
