Chapter nine presents the different effects that this dealer-centered market had on paintings produced under such conditions.  The changes that differentiate nineteenth-century British pictures from their eighteenth-century predecessors can be explained, in addition to the traditional social causes, by the appropriation of the art market by institutionalized dealers for the purpose of selling art products to primarily middle class consumers for domestic use.
