An overdue study of a groundbreaking event, this is the first book-length examination of the Manchester Art Treasures Exhibition of 1857. Intended to rehabilitate Manchester's image at a heady time of economic prosperity, the Exhibition became a touchstone for aesthetic, social, and economic issues of the mid-nineteenth century. Reverberations of this moment can be followed to the present day in the discipline of art history and its practice in public museums of Europe and America. Highlighting the tension between art and commerce, philanthropy and profit, the book examines the Exhibition's organization and the presentation of the works of art in the purpose-built Art Treasures Palace. Pergam places the Exhibition in the context of contemporary debates about museum architecture and display. With an analysis of the reception of both "Ancient" and "Modern" paintings, the book questions the function of exhibitions in the construction of an art historical canon. The book also provides an essential reference tool: a compiled list of all of the paintings exhibited in 1857 that are now in public collections throughout the world, with an analysis of the collecting trends manifest in their provenance.

Manchester in the mid-nineteenth century was a city of industry and commerce - wealthy, to be sure, but also polluted and over crowded, and certainly not a major cultural centre. A group of Mancunian businessmen was determined to change this. The result was the Art Treasures Exhibition of the United Kingdom of 1857, an exhibition of some 16,000 works borrowed mainly from private owners around the country and housed in a purpose-built 'art palace'. The show was a huge success, drawing 1.3 million visitors over a period of five months. To mark the 150th anniversary of the original exhibition, the story of this unprecedented expression of civic pride is told here. Illustrated with images of many of the original exhibits, as well as artists' impressions of the exhibition itself, it is the story of an event which exemplified the birth of modern attitudes towards art. This book is published in association with Manchester Art Gallery.
