Description
Good Condition. The book is in good condition overall, with some minor yellowing around the edges of the pages and a small note on the first page. The dust jacket has some minor creases and scratches and a mark on the back from a sticky label. The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood was an association of painters, formed in London in 1848. Its chief members were Holman Hunt, Millais and Rossetti. As a group, the Brotherhood lasted for little more than a decade, but it gave a new direction to Victorian art which lasted into the 20th century. They determined to paint direct from nature, with objective truthfulness, emulating the work of the great Italian artists before Raphael. They turned to the Bible and classical mythology for inspiration, and some of their best-known works are show in this splendid volume, including Hunt's Light of the World, and Millais' Christ in the House of His Parents.
