Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Tate

Tate has one of the world's outstanding collections of Pre-Raphaelite pictures and this exhibition will showcase the breadth and quality of the material in the Collection. Familiar, iconic paintings by Rossetti, Holman Hunt and Millais will be brought together with works by artists who were friends or followers of the Brotherhood and includes some outstanding pictures by artists such as Simeon Solomon, Spencer Stanhope, Arthur Hughes and Robert Braithwaite Martineau; it will also include excellent works by slightly forgotten members of the Brotherhood. The exhibition will also highlight the outstanding strength of Pre-Raphaelite drawings in the Tate collection, with a particularly strong group of major Rossetti and Burne-Jones works on paper, which are only rarely seen at Tate.
