Pre-Raphaelite Knights Gallery Tour

Step right in a world of chivalry, damsels and honour in our Pre Raphs Gallery Tour. Learn more about the authors of these magnificent paintings and their meanings.
This exhibition will include paintings from prestigious UK collections including the Tate, The Fitzwilliam Museum, Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, Guildhall Art Gallery and Manchester Art Gallery featuring maidens in distress, knights in armour, saints and chivalry with romance and whimsy in galore.
The Pre-Raphaelite movement was a secret brotherhood of painters, writers and poets who rebelled against the promotion of painters like Raphael, whose work they thought looked unreal.
Along with paintings by Rossetti, Millais, and Holman Hunt among others, there will also be suits of armour, illustrated editions of books by William Morris and Alfred Tennyson and interactive displays.

Thank you - very well presented, and with appropriate explanations of each painting. Often derided in more modern times, the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, it`s philosophy and approach to visualizing the Medieval world has stood the test of time - the paintings are, once again, being enthusiastically appreciated. Splendid !

Is there a guide book or anything else in regards to this exhibit that one can buy online to support the museum?
