Synopsis
This lavishly illustrated book provides a fresh appraisal of the Pre-Raphaelite artists of mid-Victorian England and their radical departure from artistic conventions. Tim Barringer explores the meanings encoded in Pre-Raphaelite paintings and finds a dynamic energy that arises from paradoxes at the heart of the movement, between past and present, historicism and modernity, and symbolism and realism.
