The book explores how the concept of Civilisation influenced prominent public mural paintings and sculptures in Europe and the United States during the long nineteenth century. It examines the role of these artworks in speculating on historical trajectories and shaping Western perceptions of non-Western societies, as well as their impact on evaluations of social progress and artistic merit. Through this lens, the book highlights the intricate relationship between art, culture, and historical narratives.
