PreRaphaelite Brotherhood
The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood was a group of English painters, poets, and critics formed in 1848. They were known for their rejection of the academic art of their time, instead drawing inspiration from medieval and early Renaissance art. The group's members included influential artists such as Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais, and William Holman Hunt. The Pre-Raphaelites sought to bring a new level of realism and detail to their work, often focusing on themes from literature, mythology, and nature. Their artworks are characterized by rich colors, intricate detail, and a strong emphasis on symbolism.
