The Pre-Modern Era began about 1865 and was a period of sweeping change.
Even more than in the “enlightened” 18th century, men were now trying to control the world around them.
And now, they had the advanced tools of science and technology with which to work.
By the end of the nineteenth century it was industry which produced much of what is now considered art.
The engineer Eiffel constructed his famous tower to commemorate the great Paris Exposition of 1889, but he had earlier made his reputation as a builder of bridges.
But inside, Romantic Byzantine domes were made of sheet metal, a product of the new industrial age.
Thus prefabricated with interchangeable parts, the whole Exhibition Hall was put together in only a few weeks' time.
As man increasingly concerned himself with the technical world, the subject matter of painting moved away from these emotion-filled Romantic scenes, which had predominated in the first half of the century.
Actually, the art world was even more upset by Manet’s technique.
Moreover, the paint on the canvas was itself becoming as important as the subject.
The eye of the spectator was obliged to fill in what was missing.
Artists were fighting to free themselves from the artificial conventions and rules of academic art, such as the exact duplication on canvas of every detail in the scene they were painting.
Also, the pursuit of literally capturing the external and objective world had inspired scientific and technological minds like Daguerre's to the invention of the photographic process.
