The symbolists
[Translated by Mary Anne Stevens.
de Philippe Jullian · Publicada por primera vez en 1973
The Symbolists have until recently remained the unknown force of European nineteenth-century painting, hidden behind the brilliant success of the Impressionists, and lost in an oblivion to which the stark functionalism of the years following World War I condemned them.
