The Pre-Raphaelites refer to an English art movement of the 19th century. It originated with the founding of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, PRB, by the artist friends William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais and Dante Gabriel Rosetti.
The name outlines their chosen program - the model was Italian Renaissance art before the time of the painter and architect Raphael (1483-1520). The reason was their conviction that artistic naivety had been lost and that the omnipresent mannerism offered no possibilities for development. Later, artists such as Collinson, Deverell, William Michael Rosetti, Solomon, Stephens and Woolner were added to the group. At times the community published the journal The Germ, later Art and Poetry. The PRB was dissolved in 1853, some of the artists later found themselves in the Hogarth Club.
One focus was on the most accurate depiction of nature. What the Academy of Art taught was to be overcome, art was to be liberated. Here there was a parallel to the German Nazarenes who had come together around Overbeck. One source of motif was literature, especially works by Blake, Shakespeare, and the late Romantic Tennyson. In their nostalgic longing, the Pre-Raphaelites sought a landscape still unspoiled by industrialization and stability in the pure and unadulterated.
The Academy of Art took exception to the Pre-Raphaelites' painting style and excluded them from its exhibition halls. Critics scorned their work, while other artists sympathized. It was not until Ruskin's essay in The Times in 1851 that the painting style became suitable for the salon - the parallels to the esteemed William Turner as well as the painterly new approaches were now acclaimed. These included clear, luminous colors, bright light, the most precise, respectful study of nature, and the depiction of even the smallest details. The content was about the mystical in the life of the soul, the preference of true passion over beauty or elegance.
This approach clearly influenced English art; influences are visible, for example, in Burne-Jones, de Morgan, Morris or Stanhope.

würde noch mehr Sterne vergeben, bin sehr zufrieden,freue mich jedesmal auf das bestellte Bild, und es übertrifft jedesmal meine Vorstellungen. Danke für die tolle Arbeit. hanni Stetter😘
Andermaal doet Meisterdrücke wat het toezegt. Een topprodukt leveren dus. Ik had ditmaal een bestelling geplaatst van “Der Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer” van C.D. Friedrich. Op de meer dan uitstekende website kun je goed zien wat de status is van je bestelling en het tussentijds contact was ook goed: de vragen die ik stelde werden prima ...
Vor allem hat mich die Qualität des Drucks begeistert! Dass man die Möglichkeit zur Rahmenauswahl hat und die Art der Hängung selbst bestimmen kann hat find ich positiv.
Bin voll zufrieden. Ich konnte ohne viele Komplikationen noch ein weiteres Bild nachordern, es wurde dann der ersten Bestellung zugerechnet, so hatte ich die zweiten Portokosten gespart. Die Qualität ist top und die Beratung auch.
Leider habe ich bei der Bestellung zwei Fehler gemacht: erstens hatte ich icht auf die TGiefe des Rahmens geachtet und zweitens habe ich nicht bedacht, das mein Motiv „Die Toteninsel“ von Böcklin in einem relativ großem Format viel zu dunkel wird. Am COmputerbildschrim kann man das schlecht einschätzen. Das ist nur als Ratschlag für an...
Sehr gute Bildqualität (Papier, Druck, Farben). Hilfe und Begleitung durch Anbieterfirma während des Bestell-und Druckvorgangs. Saubere und sichere Verpackung und Lieferung.
Für mich als Kunstliebhaber die absolute Nummer 1! Sowohl bei der Qualität, als auch der preislichen Gestaltung ein unschlagbarer Anbieter wie der Name schon sagt: von MEISTERDRUCKEN! Dazu eine professionelle Internet-Seite; Anpassungen an Rahmengröße, Modifizierungen etc. - sehr anwenderfreundlich und selbsterklärend. Und was die Komm...
Ich hatte nach einem jap. Farbholzschnitt von einem bestimmten Künstler gesucht. Die Auswahl auf der Web-Seite war riesig. Nachdem ich meine Wahl getroffen hatte, konnte ich noch vor dem Druck Einfluss auf die Farbgebung nehmen und bekam jedesmal eine Vorabversion zur Freigabe zugeschickt. So habe ich das (für mich) perfekte Bild (als ...
Toller Kundendienst, der mich von sich aus kontaktiert hat, da es noch eine bessere Vorlage zu meiner Auswahl gab. Qualität des Drucks auch sehr gut, auch wenn ich kein Experte bin.
I was extremely impressed with the ease of use and feedback on the delivery of this print. The choice of images is very impressive and the quality isdecond to none. Highly recommended!
Hervorragende Qualität, der auf Hartfaserplatte kaschierte Druck sieht im Rahmen aus wie ein Ölbild. Die Lieferung erfolgte sauber verpackt und gepolstert in einem entsprechend großen Karton. Der gesamte Prozess und die gelieferte Qualität sind 1A. Was ich mir noch wünschen würde: Da ich das Bild in einen vorhandenen Rahmen aus dem 1...
Bei meiner Erstbestellung eines Drucks verliefen Bestellannahme, Bazahlung und Versand problemlos. Der Druck war sorgfältig und eben (nicht gerollt) verpackt. Die Qualität der Ausführung der Kopie (nicht im Originalformat) hat mich überzeugt. Ich werde sie weiter empfehlen. LH
