Abstract (en)

The reviewer finds that the catalogue focuses too much on locating Sickert within the heavily mythologized, masculine trope identified with French modernism and typified by Degas, and fails to address the issues of perception and identification, masculine power and sexual identity with which his works were intimately concerned.
