The Origins of the World

The Invention of Nature in the 19th Century

Ed. Laura Bossi
This catalogue of an exhibition at the Musée d’Orsay in Paris explores the growing understanding of nature in an epoch when industrialization and colonization were threatening it as never before. With 250 illustrations – including works by Turner, Monet and Redon as well as posters and scientific plates – the essays consider the interaction between science and the arts, and the impact of Darwin’s On the Origin of Species on society and popular culture.
