Tate Britain- Pre-Raphaelites.. 2012

The 'Pre- Rapaelites' has always been an art movement i most enjoy exploring further into,  i also very much enjoy looking at the stunning pieces analysation brush style, artist technique and the perspective or element the painting gives to the viewer. Being Britain's first art movement, the Pre- Raphaelites exhibition was definitely an experience not to miss. With over 150 diverse artworks all in a varied amount of medium or material, including: painting, sculpture, photography and applied arts. The main focus and importance of this exhibition was to teach and show the beauty of the Pre- Raphaelite art movement, a movement that was able to achieve and appear successful in all different types of genres.

I love how gentle and well- handled the art work looked whilst roaming through this exhibition and sense of beauty and sophistication really stood out to me in most of the pieces i viewed. The three main artists that led the exhibition with their wonderful collection of avant-garde artworks were, 'Dante Gabriel Rossetti, 'William Holman Hunt' and 'John Everett Millais' 

Each artist depicted a sense of admiration and inspiration for the early Renaissance painting, interestingly enough it is said that through their sheer passion for this style of painiting, they were looked upon as rebellions of mid 19th century art establishment. 

Highly satisfying as an exhibition to see in my personal opinion, with a range of artworks some seen before some only just being introduced to us viewers, however not only was it pleasurable and most inspiring to see the artists who focus on the Pre Raphaelite movement, but it was most intriguing and fascinating to find out the stories behind the piece. Each painting being completely unique in its own way but each painting sharing the same relation in highlighting, Rebellion, Beauty, imagination and science and precision.
