Seriously nice collection there Kathy. Edward Robert Hughes, he's a Pre-Raph Brotherhood member? I never came across him. Just all the usual suspects. Holman Hunt, Rossetti and Millais, but of course that was 1848, and the B'Hood was obviously organic in it's evolution.

And of course after a bit of research E. R. Hughes was a studio assistant to Holman Hunt... ah, the mist clears!

And Rackham... wonderful

Rackham Art Images - Arthur Rackham's Illustrations to Alice in Wonderland

should have had this up in the recent re-writing of that particular classic! Complete the Thought indeed... Alice in Hades, flicking her Bic...

And well, this was for me inevitable. Love Rossetti in this period[ I]Bocca Baciata.I] Rossetti at his most sensuous. A feast for all the senses.
