Pre-Raphaelites

Everything in life, and therefore in art, requires renewal. In the 19th century, figures in the art world, including artists in Britain who would be called pre-Raphaelites, decided that contemporary art, which at that time was academicism – "hypocritical and... artificial." They wanted to make art "free," and this meant: to be sincere, to accurately depict nature, and to avoid clichés. Three periods in the history of pre-Raphaelitism, as well as the work of artists who worked in the academic tradition but were not immune to the influence of the "powerful movement" of the pre-Raphaelites, are reflected in our book.
