Description

This book proposes new understandings of modern life in Britain by bringing constructs of female spirituality centre stage and examining three 'forgotten' artists identified with the Pre-Raphaelites and Victorianism.

Thomas Cooper Gotch, Robert Anning Bell and Frederick Cayley Robinson are resituated squarely within the tumultuous social and cultural changes of the period. Becoming visible again, in more inclusive histories, allows such artists not only to re-inhabit but to reshape narratives of modernism, reanimating the scholarly discourse and creating a dynamic cultural history of modern Britain expressed through their striking visions of womanhood.

This book will be of interest to scholars in art history, gender studies and British studies.
