Art of the Pre-Raphaelites, The (PB)

by Elizabeth Prettejohn item code: 6736
£19.99

When the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood met in lodgings in London's Gower Street in 1848, they were to produce a statement of ideas which would revolutionise art practice in Victorian England. Elizabeth Prettejohn explores why Pre- Raphaelite art retains the power to fascinate, and often to shock, a century and a half later.
