Pre-Raphaelite

Pre-Raphaelite The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood was made up of a group of painters who were sick of the art world, and rebelled against the rigid rules of Victorian era. They were idealistic, and used themes of honor, spirituality, brotherhood, and innocence. The name "Pre-Raphaelite" comes from the idea that no artwork has been pure and good since the time of Raphael.
