"This important publication brings together paintings, drawings, photographs and other works that women contributed to the Pre-Raphaelite movement during its long life. Spanning three generations from the 1840s to the early 1900s, the artists include Barbara Bodichon, Anna Howitt, Rosa Brett, Anna Blunden, Jane Benham Hay, Joanna Boyce, Elizabeth Siddal, Rebecca Solomon, Emma Sandys, Julia Margaret Cameron, Lucy and Catherine Madox Brown, Marie Spartali Stillman, Maria Zambaco, Christiana Herringham and Eleanor Fortescue Brickdale. With many works reproduced and documented here for the first time, Pre-Raphaelite Women Artists redefines and greatly enhances our knowledge of this popular and historically significant movement. From a broader perspective, this book illuminates an important chapter in the neglected history of women artists through the centuires." - from back of book.
