About: This is a lovely Pre-Raphaelite movement watercolour titled Lunar Enlightenment. Signed E. Pinter, we are currently researching this name although it could well be a pseudonym for Edward Henry Corbould (British 1815-1905).
The Pre-Rapaelites was a group of English painters, poets, illustrators and art critics, founded by a brotherhood of seven-member artists in 1848, William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Michael Rossetti, James Collinson, Frederic George Stephens and Thomas Woolner. The movement was formed as a reaction against what they conceived to be the unimaginative and artificial historical painting of the Royal Academy. The movement drew inspiration from visual art and literature, their work privileged atmosphere and mood over narrative, focusing on medieval subjects, artistic introspection, female beauty, sexual yearning and altered states of consciousness. The movement lasted until the end of the century and had many more prominent followers and developments.
