Got my ticket booked for the Rossetti exhibition at the #Tate this weekend. Finishes at the end of Sep, so just under the wire. #preraphaelite https://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-britain/the-rossettis
Putting down some thoughts in the Reading Room at Brantwood. Such a beautiful house!

Very quiet in down town Kendal this morning. Heading #acrossthewall later, but first Brantwood, home of Ruskin and all it's #preraphaelite delights beckons.
I went to the Rossettis exhibition at Tate Britain on Wednesday and really enjoyed it. Obviously the paintings of #DanteGabrielRossetti took centre stage, but it was also the biggest display of works by #LizzieSiddal his wife in decades, and it mentioned the work of his siblings – quotes from Christina's poems were on some of the walls.
One that really struck me was In An Artist's Studio, about the artist showing the model 'Not as she is, but as she fills his dream'

RT @longvictorian2: The Deceitfullness of Riches (1901) by Eleanor Fortescue Brickdale (English artist, lived 1872–1945). A maiden and her cat. The Princess is surrounded by - and trapped by - her riches, with the 'real' world kept from her. #PreRaphaelite style. https://t.co/YKriUhH2gQ

I stumbled upon this fantastic video on the #Victorian aesthetic movement from the Victoria and Albert Museum while prepping for class today. #Wilde #WilliamMorris #Pre-Raphaelite #PreRaphaelite #Rossetti #DGR

Bocca Baciata, by Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Currently can be seen in "the Rossettis" at Tate Britain, on loan from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
"Bocca baciata non perde ventura, anzi rinnova come fa la luna."
- The mouth that has been kissed does not lose its good fortune:
rather, it renews itself just as the moon does

We've booked to visit the Rossetti exhibition at #TateBritain when we go to #London.
It's ferkin expensive in my opinion, but we see so much 'free' #art in public museums that I think we can justify the outlay.
I've got a love/hate relationship with the #preraphaelite movement - we'll see if I'm moved either way when we go.

spending my evening looking at the backgrounds of Pre-Raphaelite paintings to help me with the background of an illustration I'm working on that's got a bit of an uneven composition to it

Making art with a higher purpose beyond commodification and drawing on sources outside of pop culture blended with craftsmanship and genuine intent is how we can offer tactile and visceral work that speaks to the viewer. #scastio #artist #artistonmastodon #traditionalartist #penandink #drawing #fineart #nineteenthcentury #preraphaelite #Victorian #findesiecle

Thomas Chatterton became an accomplished poet & managed to die in literary, opium-fogged poverty all by the age of just 17. While walking with a friend in St Pancras Old Churchyard, he fell into an open grave. His friend, helping him out, joked about assisting in the resurrection of his genius. Chatterton replied, 'My dear friend, I have been at war with the grave for some time now.' #Romantics #gothic #poets #poetry #history #weird #weirdhistory #PreRaphaelite #art
