He explores the role of art in society, the relationship between beauty and emotion, and the ways in which art can be used to convey meaning and evoke emotion. Overall, ''The Anatomy And Philosophy Of Expression As Connected With The Fine Arts'' is a comprehensive exploration of the relationship between human anatomy, emotion, and art.
