Quote by Robert Nelson

There was once a time when art history and film were basically the same medium, but art history is frozen in late-19th-century technology that has survived into the early 21st century.


There was once a time when art history and film were basical

Summary

This quote suggests that there was a time when art history and film were closely intertwined, possibly referring to the early years of cinema when it was seen as a form of art. However, while film has evolved and advanced significantly, art history remains stuck in outdated technology. It implies that art history has not progressed at the same pace as film, perhaps alluding to the field's resistance to adopting modern techniques and technologies.
