Pre-Raphaelites: Masterpieces of Art

LONDON - Feb. 4, 2016 - PRLog -- In an exciting new turn in nineteenth-century art, the avant-garde Pre-Raphaelites Brotherhood undertook to revitalize English painting. Founded by John Everett Millais, William Holman Hunt and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, but soon joined by others, the themes of love, death, society and nature were explored with revolutionary realism and brilliant colour.

This fantastic book will lead you through the passions, influences and ideologies of this circle of artists, providing sections on Contemporary Life, Literature & Myth and Love & Female Beauty. Alongside the informative text, enjoy the Pre-Raphaelites’ greatest artworks displayed in all their groundbreaking detail. From Millais’ tragic Ophelia, to Hunt’s socially concerned The Awakening Conscience, from Rossetti’s novel reinterpretation of a traditional scene in The Annunciation to the emotionally charged April Love by Arthur Hughes.

As beautiful as it is insightful, Pre-Raphaelites Masterpieces of Art will bring to life the passion and skill of a revolutionary group of characters and the truth they sought to capture.
