Among the topics discussed are the printed sources for decorative motifs in sixteenth-century churches, the publication history of the works of Andrea Palladio, and the evolution of drawing manuals in seventeenth-century England. Other subjects include the library formed by the architect Sir John Soane, developments in nineteenth-century art publishing, and the role of printed catalogues in documenting the acquisitions made by English collectors of paintings, sculpture, and antiquities.

New Castle and London Oak Knoll Press and The British Library 2005 8.5 x 11 inches Hardcover, dust jacket 352 pages.
In the second half of the 19th century, a group of artists burst onto the British art scene and created a graphic revolution. Collectively known as the Pre-Raphaelites, their influence on the Victorian Age was incalculable. In this unique work, Gregory Suriano, a Pre-Raphaelite collector with a Master's Degree in Art History from Rutgers University, has rewritten and expanded this second edition with 75 rare, additional engravings not in the 2000 first edition.

The work is divided into three parts. Part One features a short, intriguing biography and works of each of the major Pre-Raphaelites. Part Two features biographies and works of their Associates. Part Three includes artists who were greatly influenced by the Pre-Raphaelites. All artists are critically discussed. The appendix has an extensive catalogue of their works and a selected bibliography and references plus index.

This work makes an excellent reference volume and introduction into the unique world of the Pre-Raphaelite artists. Illustrated with over 525 black-and-white images.
