The article analyzes the role of the 19th-century art periodicals in the formation of the art market. In particular, their influence on the distribution and popularization of art, the development of professional criticism, and the organization of art exhibitions is considered. The purpose of the article is to analyze the main trends and changes in the 19th-century art periodicals in Great Britain and France to understand their role in shaping artistic values and their impact on the art market. The author, studying the role of the first art periodicals of that time (e.g., The Art Journal, The Magazine of Art, etc.) in the formation and transmission of artistic ideas and concepts, regards art periodicals as a major driver in building the art market. Attention is focused on the periodicals of Great Britain and France, which were the leading centers of the development of art in the 19th century. Therefore, they sparked the increased interest of culture experts, art critics, and historians. The author analyzes historical trends and key events that influenced the development of the 19th century art periodicals, including changes in the political, economic, and social spheres. The research contributes to a better understanding of the conditions upon which an art periodical spawns and develops, which represents the key trends and events that influenced the art market’s development. Archival sources and literature analysis are used in the research. The 19th-century art periodicals influenced the art market because they became a mediator between artists, the public, and collectors, which raised the artistic and commercial value of artworks. The conclusions drawn make it possible to better understand the significance and effect of art on the formation of values and meanings in society and consider the role of art periodicals in rendering artistic ideas and concepts that influenced the further development of the art market.
