The Critical Historians of Art by Michael Podro

Major transformations in philosophy in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries had a deep impact on the subsequent historiography of art, particularly that which developed in Germany between the 1820s and the 1920s. It central figures included Semper, Riegel, Wolfflin, Warburg and Panofsky. Their conceptions of art had their foundation in the aesthetics of Kant, Schiller and Hegel, and they set out to construct interpretative procedures which bring out the role of art within the mental life of the past, and retrieve it for that of the present.
