In 1848, seven inexperienced young artists banded together to form the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, one of the first and most distinctive group movements in modern art. Analysing their materials, techniques, and working pratices, this book examines how Pre-Raphaelite pictures make the viewer see something more than the traditional painting styles.

An illustrated appraisal of the turbulent life and career of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, poet and painter, recluse and drug addict and founder and leader of the Pre-Raphaelite movement.

The Pre-Raphaelites produced some of the best known images of Victorian art. This book brings together examples of their paintings with extracts of the poetry which inspired them, including work by Shakespeare and Lord Byron.

Edward Burne-Jones is well known as a Pre-Raphelite painter, but little is known about his life. Here, in her first book, Penelope Fitzgerald paints a portrait of one of the most interesting and individual of all Victorian artists.

Surveys the origins, development, techniques, approaches, principles, motifs, and major paintings of the nineteenth-century British school, relating the painters and their works to their society.

The friendship between William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones began when they met as undergraduates in 1853 and lasted until Morris' death in 1896, despite their differences in temperament and in attitudes to political engagement. This book explores particular aspects of the paintings of Burne-Jones and the designs of Morris.

This volume offers an insight into the lives of the Pre-Raphaelite group of artists which included Rosetti, John Millais, William Holman Hunt, Thomas Woolner, William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones. Paintings, portraits, photographs of interiors, furnishings and textiles designs are also included.

The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood was founded in 1848. Their artistic beliefs were set out by John Ruskin, the art historian who ardently supported them. Their chief principle was truth to nature: that a painter should draw what he or she sees, and not follow painterly conventions. This book offers a wide range of poetic and literary extracts.

Extensively illustrated, this book includes previously unseen images and presents a unique opportunity for the reader to examine these paintings as closely as a conservator and to uncover the secrets of the Pre-Raphalite painters.

All over Europe in 1848, governments and thrones were falling. In England, political revolution was averted, but in the same year three students started an artistic revolution that was to reverberate through the rest of the century. This is the story of the pre-Raphaelites.
