Victorian era art is renowned for its storytelling power, meticulous detail, and often vivid symbolism. Key movements like the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, featuring luminaries such as John William Waterhouse, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and William Holman Hunt, sought to infuse art with moral purpose and intense naturalism, often drawing inspiration from literature and mythology. Beyond the Pre-Raphaelites, the Academic painters like Lawrence Alma-Tadema and Frederic Leighton captivated audiences with their classical themes and exquisite rendering, while the Aesthetic Movement, championed by artists like Edward Burne-Jones, prioritized beauty for its own sake.
