Victorian Babylon by Lynda Nead
In this innovative look at nineteenth-century London, Lynda Nead offers a fresh account of modernity and metropolitan life. Taking a highly interdisciplinary approach, Nead charts the relationship between London's formation into a modern city in the 1860s and the emergence of new ways of producing and consuming visual culture.
“[This] genuinely interdisciplinary study. . makes a major contribution to our knowledge of the lived experience of the Victorian city.”—Timothy Barringer, Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians

“Splendid. . . . [Nead] brings an art historian’s fine sense of visual detail; indeed, one of the most striking features of the book is the wonderful illustrative material.”—John Marriott, History Today
