March: Pre-Raphaelites
Wednesday, March 20, 7pm
A group of English painters, poets and critics formed in the mid- 1850s, the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood sought a return to the abundant detail, intense colours and complex compositions of Quattrocento Italian art. The group was devoted to genuine ideas, careful study of nature, and art that heartfelt and serious. Presented by Lorna Cahall.
