The pre-raphaelite at the Tate just over the road from Chelsea was a visit i did, it presents the pre-raphaelites a avant-garde movement, a group with a radical project overturning artistic orthodoxies, they made a massive impact on the history of modern art. They worked at a time when the world was going through massive changes especially in Europe, steamships were exploring the world, railways were linking cities and science was challenging traditional religious beliefs, photography was opening windows of opportunity and the pre-Raphaelites took this boom of energy on board and began to embrace it within there art. They were original in what they did and opened a new vision into art.
Here are a few snaps i took when visiting the exhibition! Even though i was told off a fair few times for doing so! uh oh! :)
