The Pre-Raphaelites, founded in 1848 by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Holman Hunt and John Everett Millais, believed that art should truthfully represent what we see. The artists used bright, jewel-like colours, so that their paintings stood out and demanded people’s attention. In this film, Glory Samjolly shows us how to paint like a Pre-Raphaelite. 🌸 | Tate

🌿🏺 Yikes, this painting is quite the ride. But it’s also a great example of Pre-Raphaelite art. Allow me to explain ⬇ 🇬🇧 The artist behind this painting is William Holman Hunt, one of the founders of the ✨Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood ✨ A bunch of serious Englishmen with beards and sideburns that didn’t like the looks of mid-19th-century British art AT ALL. 🤝 So they teamed up and created guidelines to breathe new life into what they thought was the dusty old boring English art of the time. 🏛
