The Art Idea: Sculpture, Painting, and Architecture in America is a book written by James Jackson Jarves and originally published in 1865. The book is a comprehensive exploration of the development of art in America during the mid-19th century. Jarves covers a range of artistic forms, including sculpture, painting, and architecture, and provides detailed analyses of the work of various artists and architects. He also delves into the cultural and historical context that influenced the creation of art during this period, including the impact of European art movements on American artists. The Art Idea is not only a historical document but also a critical examination of the state of American art in the mid-19th century. Jarves argues that American artists should draw inspiration from their own country's landscapes, history, and culture, rather than simply imitating European styles. He also advocates for the importance of art in society, arguing that it can serve as a means of elevating the human spirit and promoting social progress. Overall, The Art Idea is an important work in the history of American art, offering a valuable perspective on the development of artistic movements during the mid-19th century and the role of art in society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
