    La confrérie de l’inspiration : Démêler les Le Préraphaélisme

    September 1, 2023 / 0 Comments

    Dans une Angleterre victorienne emportée par les rapides évolutions de la révolution industrielle, la confrérie préraphaélite, proche des Arts & Crafts de William Morris, prôna le retour aux valeurs d’antan. Souhaitant le renouveau des formes épurées et nobles de la Renaissance italienne, ses peintres majeurs tels John Everett Millais, Dante Gabriel Rossetti ou William Holman Hunt, en opposition à l’académisme d’alors, privilégièrent le réalisme et les thèmes bibliques aux canons affectés du XIXe siècle.

    Bruderschaft der Inspiration: Der Enträtselung die Präraffaeliten Ästhetik

    August 31, 2023 / 0 Comments

    In dem durch die Industrielle Revolution geprägten viktorianischen England sehnte sich die präraffaelitische Bruderschaft, die eine große Nähe zu der von William Morris angeführten Arts and Crafts-Bewegung aufwies, nach einer Rückkehr zu Werten einer vergangenen Zeit. Die führenden Maler dieses Kreises wie John Everett Millais, Dante Gabriel Rossetti und William Holman Hunt wollten die reinen und edlen Formen der Renaissance wiederbeleben und zogen, im Gegensatz zur akademischen Malerei ihrer Zeit, Realismus und biblische Motive dem affektierten Kanon des 19. Jahrhunderts vor.

    Brotherhood of Inspiration: Unraveling the Pre-Raphaelite Aesthetics

    August 29, 2023 / 0 Comments

    In Victorian England, with the country swept up in the Industrial Revolution, the Pre-Raphaelites, close to William Morris’ Arts and Crafts movement, yearned for a return to bygone values. Wishing to revive the pure and noble forms of the Italian Renaissance, the major painters of the circle favoured realism and biblical themes over the academicism of the time.

    Women of the Pre-Raphaelite Movement: Models, Muses, Lovers, Artists

    October 11, 2012 / 2 Comments

    When you think of “Pre-Raphaelite”, what comes to mind? For me, it is male painters, female subjects, a lot of nature, and vivid colours. And for 95% percent of paintings produced by this movement, this is the reality. The key members of the group (Hunt, Millais, the two Rossettis, Collinson, Stephens, and Woolner) were all men. Together, they created a secret group called the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Like just about every other artistic movement, the Brotherhood wanted reform. They rejected the academic styles of Raphael and artists after him, finding them idealised and corrupted. The Brotherhood sought a return to the Pre-Raphael Italian style with its vivid colours and imitation of…
