The Troubled Republic by Richard Thomson

This study examines how visual culture in late-19th-century France became a battleground for social and political conflict, showing that paintings, illustrations, posters, and public exhibitions both reflected and helped shape debates over republican identity, nationalism, colonialism, secularism, and social reform; through close case studies of artworks, press imagery, and cultural controversies, it argues that images mediated anxieties about modernity and change and revealed broader struggles over power, memory, and citizenship in a fractious society.
