Pre-Raphaelitism and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood

Omtale

William Holman Hunt (1827–1910) chronicles the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood's history in this two-volume memoir of 1905, controversially presenting himself as the movement's founding father. Volume 1 describes the coming together of Millais, Rossetti and their circle, Ruskin's influence, Hunt's own early successes, and the perils of painting The Scapegoat by the Dead Sea.
