Description
The Ashmolean Museum presents a comprehensive collection of Pre-Raphaelite drawings and watercolours. In 1857, artists such as Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Morris, and Edward Burne-Jones decorated the debating chamber of the Oxford Union, marking an important milestone in their careers. This book showcases the incredible range of techniques and media used by these artists, including pencil, pen and ink, chalk, watercolor, bodycolor, and metallic paints. The collection includes a wide variety of appealing works, from intimate portraits to landscapes that reflect Ruskin's advice to 'go to nature'. With over 240 pages, this book is an in-depth exploration of the Ashmolean's remarkable Pre-Raphaelite holdings, offering a unique insight into the lives and artistic practices of these influential artists.
