Persaudaraan Pra-Raphaelite itu apa sih?

Persaudaraan Pra-Raphaelite (kemudian dikenal sebagai Pra-Raphaelite) adalah sebuah kelompok yang didirikan pada tahun 1848 oleh para pelukis, penyair dan kritikus seni rupa di Inggris. Perkumpulan ini dipelopori oleh William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais, dan Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Pada perkembangannya, selain ketiga pelopor tersebut, anggota kelompok ini bertambah dengan bergabungnya beberapa orang lainnya, yaitu William Michael Rossetti, James Collinson, Frederic George Stephens dan Thomas Woolner yang kemudian membentuk "Persaudaraan" tujuh anggota sebagai bagian dari gerakan Nazarene. Persaudaraan tersebut hanyalah sebuah asosiasi dan prinsip-prinsip mereka dibagi oleh seniman lainnya pada masa itu, yang meliputi Ford Madox Brown, Arthur Hughes dan Marie Spartali Stillman. Para pengikut berikutnya dari prinsip-prinsip Persaudaraan tersebut meliputi Edward Burne-Jones, William Morris dan John William Waterhouse.
