Pre-Raphaelite

In the 19th century there was seven rebellious young men, that these men formed as Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood that these were artists that formed in London, so they can express themselves by creating new British Art. They used to inspire themselves from nature, literature from the Bible and Shakespeare.
Their name was called from the chief source of inspiration from modern paintings. There are always translate a sense of sincerity, seriousness and truth trough the nature. After they had an exhibit in London, that showed in the 1849 and many painting where exhibited. There paintings where on canvas and there aim was so they can express there feeling against corruption.

Their feelings where justice, pity and familiar relationship. There work was always critical and it was made with their composting of working. They used to use a lot of shadow, flatten their forms and used to make a wet white ground to colouration. One of their best writer was John Ruskin. He was a supporter to painting from nature that lead him to Gothic Revival paintings.

This type of work was plain-air made with little detail. In the 1850s the brotherhood diapered but some of them remained close friends. When this happened, it appeared new inspiration tough William Morris and Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Morris in the 1861 opened a company and he used to design hand-craft object, household objects, and it was the beginning of the Arts and Crafts Movement.In 1860s, new artists, including Edward Burne-Jones, Simeon Solomon, and Albert Moore, were introduced to Pre-Raphaelite so they could be a refresh influence.

This new group by new individuals was named as the Aeasthic Movement in the 1870s - 1890s. This design was reflecting the Victorian period as the beauty that woman have in there harmony, form and composting was the most important. As there work became also more and more decorative they were also producing also new designs and be developed in Murals, Stained Glass, Furniture, Textiles, Jewellery and also wallpaper.
