Heady with eroticism, decadence and death, the Symbolist art of the late 19th century was a response to an increasingly uncertain and complex world. Yet although it forms a crucial bridge between Impressionism and Modernism, its preoccupation with ideas has given rise to much obscurity. This fresh, lucid and extensively illustrated study clears away much misunderstanding, examining the work of Bocklin, Munch, Klimt and others, tracing its roots in Romanticism and its relation to Post-Impressionists such as Gauguin and Van Gogh.
