During the reign of Academic art, the paintings of the Rococo era, previously held in low favor, were revived to popularity, and themes often used in Rococo art, such as Eros and Psyche, were popular again.

By 1890, art was taught to boys and girls in the public schools, but it was often linked to morality.
Art left control of the church and the court and entered the gallery through free enterprise (capitalism again), and art magazines and newspapers instituted "criticism" to guide the people in how to judge and select art.
After reading this chapter, I wonder whether art will ever be separated from capitalism--each "-ism" tended to attempt a more pure form of expression, with the result that art disappeared, not capitalism.

 Munch, Edvard (1863-1944) , Art Links Gallery
Born in Løten, Norway, on December 12, 1863, Munch began painting at the age of 17 in Christiania (now Oslo).
Although his later paintings are not as tortured as his earlier work, a return to introspection marks his late self-portraits, notably Between Clock and Bed (1940, Munch Museet, Oslo).
Munch's considerable body of etchings, lithographs, and woodcuts is now considered a significant force in modern graphic art; the work is simple, direct, and vigorous in style, and powerful in subject matter.
