The Pre-Raphaelites and The Italian Dream


Italy was a rich source of inspiration for the Pro-Raphaelites . British artists who formed a
confraternity in 1848 to declare their rejection of academic conventions in the name of expressive
naturalism. The exhibition organised by MAR, in co-operation with the Ashmolean Museum in
Oxford where it will move in September, explores the relationship between the Pre-Raphaelites
and the "Italian Dream" in literature, art, history and landscape, with a selection of 170 paintings,
engravings and preparatory cartoons for mosaics. Alongside works by Dante Gabriel Rossetti
(including his famous illustrations for the Divine Comedy) Edward Brune-Jones, William Holman
Hunt and John Ruskin, there are paintings by Beato Angelico ( the Nativity and Prayer in the
Garden from the Civic Painting Gallery in Forli) Perugino ( Adoration of Christchild ) and other
Italian artists viewed as archetypes by the Pre-Raphaelites
