Description
Pre-Raphaelite images are among the most popular in Western art. The mid-Victorian period was a time of great activity for book and magazine publishers, and the illustrations produced by the Pre-Raphaelite artists have retained their appeal for a wide audience. This comprehensive volume consists of biographical essays on 42 artists and their work, with a catalogue of the complete illustrative output of each artist, arranged by book/periodical title and artwork title. Accompanying each chapter are reproductions of almost every Pre-Raphaelite-style illustration by that artist, including Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais, William Holman Hunt, Ford Madox Brown, Arthur Hughes and Edward Burne-Jones. For each artist there is a catalogue of his complete illustrative output, including all known wood-engravings, etchings, steel-engravings and lithographs, arranged by book or periodical title and artwork title.
