Your Itinerary

Kensington Palace

The Pre-Raphaelites formed a secret brotherhood in 1848. Even though the name gives us a hint to art that existed before Raphael, it has nothing to do with Raphael himself. This secret society wanted to evoke the ideals which existed before the Renaissance. Same as impressionists, they opposed the standards of the Royal Academy and created their own style widely appreciated nowadays.

Melbury Rd

Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Hunt, and John Everett Millais were the main founders of the movement, followed by Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones and Henry Wallis. Each of them looked up at late medieval period and were inspired by literature.

Leighton House

Their main sources of inspiration were nature, mythology and folklore while the female models that were featured in their paintings were 19-th century celebrities. Since then Pre-Raphaelites transformed the artistic establishment of Victorian England.
