About this book

The contributions of Pre-Raphaelite artists to Tennyson's poems form the subject of an article by George Somes Layard, Tennyson and His Pre-Raphaelite Illustrators. Focusing on the illustrated volume of 1857, Layard compares work by Millais, Holman Hunt and Rossetti. His discussion considers differences in their treatment of poetic subjects and draws on Ruskin's views about how emotionally expressive art should be approached.
