  
Formed in 1848 by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais, and five other young artists and writers, the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood sought to restore to art what they saw as the passionate expression of the fourteenth century---and to save it from the prosaic, predictable straits into which they felt it had fallen. This book of postcards explores the rich, sensuous work of the Pre-Raphaelite painters through thirty glorious full-color reproductions. ISBN: 0-7649-1040-X; size: 4 3/4 x 6 7/8.
