For this #StudySaturday we have a sketch of ‘Ophelia’ by Dante Gabriel Rossetti. A popular subject with the Pre-Raphaelite artists, Rossetti depicts Ophelia weaving garlands of flowers prior to her suicide by drowning, after the cruelty she faced at the hands of Hamlet.
More Camelot Capers for this week's #TuesdayTale in line with the new exhibition 'The Legend of King Arthur: A Pre-Raphaelite Love Story' @WMGallery. Today it's James Archer's 'The Sangreal, King Arthur Healed of His Grievous Wound' (1863)
Happy Birthday Jane Morris (nee Burden), born #OTD in 1839. Model and muse, she defined Pre-Raphaelite beauty and was a skilled needlewoman, as this work designed by daughter May & worked by Jane shows.

Carry on Camelot: for this week's #ThursdayTheme we get Arthurian to coincide with the opening of 'The Legend of King Arthur: A Pre-Raphaelite Love Story' @WMGallery and a new book 'The Legend of King Arthur: Pilgrimage, Place & the Pre-Raphaelites' published by @SansomandCo
Just look at the hands of Arts + Crafts embroiderer, Jane Morris, in Pre-Raphaelite portraits of her
Wow! 15,000 followers on Instagram. I feel a bit like a sorceress, who has some how bewitched so many people to join. Thank you, so glad to have a great community of Pre-Raphaelite fans.

Virgins & Visitations: this week's #ThursdayTheme is The Annunciation, mystically treated by Arthur Hacker (1892 @Tate & on show at 'Modern Pre-Raphaelites Visionaries' exhibition, Leamington Spa), Elizabeth Sonrel (c.1900), Waterhouse (1914) & Burne-Jones (1879 @LeverArtGallery)
Thread: John William Waterhouse (1849-1917) was a late English follower of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. His romantic vision remains popular today & is amongst the finest Late Victorian art. Lady of Shalott (1888) is perhaps his most famous work.

August 30, 1855: English artist Evelyn De Morgan is born.
Evelyn was a follower of Pre-Raphaelite painter Edward Burne-Jones, and her style is very reminiscent of his.
"Art is eternal, but life is short."

'The Cadence of Autumn' by Pre-Raphaelite painter Evelyn De Morgan, #BOTD 1855. Telling myths + legends from a female perspective, her active heroines appear clothed(!) + connected to nature🍂

Second WIP of a personal illustration. I tried to get closer to a Pre-Raphaelite mood with my own colour palette . I enjoy a lot the whole creative process on this one.
