One of the most successful British artists of the early nineteenth century, Etty's work has been neglected until recently.

Featuring a series of scholarly essays written by leading experts in the period, the catalogue interrogates the casting of Etty as a figure of controversy in British art and re-examine his important and energetic contribution to artistic practice in the nineteenth century.
