The Art of the Pre-Raphaelites Art History Lecture with Tom Quinn

Saturday, August 15
10:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.
$42
In the middle of the 19th century, a group of young English artists got together with the goal of making a revolution in painting. They called themselves the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (which later welcomed sisters). Determined to rescue English art from the stodgy Victorian conventions, they turned to early Renaissance art for inspiration. The original members included William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and they were joined by Ford Madox Brown, Edward Burne-Jones, William Morris and John William Waterhouse, among many others. We show slides of these artists, as well as earlier work from a parallel movement in German art and the conventional English art the Pre-Raphaelites rebelled against.
