“The Pre-Raphaelites and their World: A Personal View” by William Michael Rossetti, with an introduction by Angela Thirkell, offers an intimate, insider’s perspective on the influential 19th-century Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. As a founding member and unofficial chronicler of the movement, Rossetti provides unique insights drawn from his “Some Reminiscences” and other writings. The book delves into the lives, artistic philosophies, and complex relationships of key figures such as his siblings Dante Gabriel and Christina Rossetti, and fellow artists like John Everett Millais and William Holman Hunt. It explores their revolutionary approach to art, their fascination with medievalism and spiritualism, and the broader cultural context of Victorian England, making it an invaluable resource for understanding this pivotal artistic movement.
