...since the Academy was the last bastion of "traditional" art to hold out against the encroachment of modernism. Long after the Museum of Modern Art in New York became a going concern, Royal Academicians like Sir Alfred Munnings were still rising over their port at Academy banquets to denounce C??zanne as a fumbler and Van Gogh as a crop-eared madman.
