Ford Madox Brown (1821-1893) is known predominantly for his close
association with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and for his
masterpiece, The Last of England (1852-55), with its poignant
imagery of a young emigrant couple aboard ship taking their last
sight of home. Admired by the young Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Brown
was introduced by Rossetti to the artists of the PRB, an
association that confirmed Brown's interests in outdoor light
effects and led to the glowing palette of his great paintings of
the 1850s. His interests embraced decorative design, and in the
1860s he was a founding member of the now famous decorating firm of
Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co. This fully illustrated
catalogue provides the first complete coverage of all of Madox
Brown's work (including a section on frame designs contributed by
Lynn Roberts). Drawing on the artist's diary and largely
unpublished correspondence with associates and patrons, Mary
Bennett provides a fascinating insight into his ideas and practice.
