Today’s #SoundofSaturday recital, is bought to you by the piano. A common feature in many Victorian family homes, here are examples of different ways the Pre-Raphaelites and their friends were inspired by the piano.
With creations by Burne-Jones, Holman Hunt and Whistler.
For this #SoundofSaturday is the powerful but sinister siren call- the femme fatales of the aquatic world. Contributions from John William Waterhouse, Dante Gabriel Rossetti and Evelyn De Morgan- whose mermaids evoke but question the siren figure- as a woman, critiquing the myth.
Happy 2022! New year can be a time of music, mirth and dancing, so to begin a new Saturday theme, the #SoundofSaturday, is Rossetti’s ‘The Bower Meadow’ @mcrartgallery.
The women’s togetherness and dreamy hopefulness are my 2022 wishes. Which artwork will inspire your new year?
