Citizen Spectator: Art, Illusion, and Visual Perception in Early National America - Published by the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture and the University of North Carolina Press New edition
Wendy Bellion
In this richly illustrated study, the first book-length exploration of illusionistic art in the early United States, Wendy Bellion investigates Americans’ experiences with material forms of visual deception and argues that encounters with illusory art shaped their understanding of knowledge, representation, and subjectivity between 1790 and 1825.
