Founded in 1848 as a secret society, the PreRaphaelites rejected classical ideals and the dominant artistic genre painting of their era for what they saw as a more spiritual, sincere, and naturalistic approach. Inaugurated by William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais, and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, they evolved into a sevenmember brotherhood that included poets and critics as well as painters.
Moving away from the classical compositions exemplified by Raphael (hence the group s name), the PreRaphaelites rather turned to medieval culture and the jewellike colors of Quattrocento art for inspiration. Their principal themes were initially religious, but also included subjects from literature and poetry, as exemplified by Sir John Everett Millais famous Ophelia, drawn from Shakespeare's Hamlet. Inspired by the theories of John Ruskin, they were also committed to the close study of nature.
This book presents key works from the PreRaphaelite group to introduce their reactionary principles, their dazzling colors, their interest in love, death, and nature, and their extensive influence on latterday Symbolism and beyond.
