Who were the Pre-Raphaelites?

Correct Answer: An important group of artists in the second half of the 19th century

The Pre-Raphaelites were an important group of painters and artists who formed a Brotherhood in 1848, during the Victorian era.

Led by figures such as Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais, and William Holman Hunt, they rejected the formal academic art style of the time and sought to return to the detail and vivid colour of early Italian Renaissance painting.

Their work is celebrated for its beauty and literary themes.
