William Holman Hunt was one of the three major artistic talents of
the Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood. Hunt's work was always
characterized by great seriousness of purpose, and his paintings
include many of the most beautiful and powerful images of that
midcentury explosion of creativity. This catalogue raisonee gives
him the attention he deserves. The book includes an introduction
that assesses Hunt's life and artistic practice and discusses his
aims, philosophy, and religious beliefs, which shed light on his
works. While many of his paintings, with their extraordinary
effects of light and color, are immediately accessible, his mature
works incorporate symbolism that cannot be fully understood without
a detailed knowledge of his intentions, and the catalogue entries
thoroughly explore this. The volume presents Hunt's oils and works
on paper in two separate sections, and appendixes provide
additional information on his illustrated letters, etchings,
published illustrations, sculpture, and furniture. Published for
the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art
