An illustrated history of the linked lives and loves of a group of supremely talented artists of late Victorian Britain through their passionate writings.

The Pre-Raphaelites was a charmed circles of love, friendship and art. Within an ever-changing flow of affections, and intimacies as richly patterned as a tapestry, they worked together as companions, lovers and partners. They shared tragedy as well as happiness, critical hostility as well as success, even the griefs of infidelity and discord.
These creative partnerships, which also created the firm William Morris and Co, revitalised Victorian art and design.
The new edition publishes in time for the start of the Burne Jones Exhibition at Tate Britain, starting in October 18. It is a vital book in understanding the Pre-Raphaelite art, which remains as popular and moving as ever.
