Frank Dicksee was born at a time when the first wave of
Pre-Raphaelitism was beginning to make its presence felt in Britain
and he inherited the romantic spirit of the movement that had been
founded only a stone's throw from his childhood home. After early
success with his painting of unrequited love, Harmony, he rose to
be one of the most popular artists of the late 19th-century,
painting in a sumptuous and dramatic style. Dicksee's family was a
veritable dynasty of artists but it is Frank who is best known and
loved today for his Pre-Raphaelite inspired subjects. He enrolled
in the Royal Academy in 1870 and quickly achieved success, elected
to the Academy in 1891 and became President of the Royal Academy in
1924. During 15 years of research, the author has located most of
Dicksee's paintings and has written a full history of his life and
works. He includes a catalogue raisonnee and illustrates almost 300
pictures, many of which are previously unpublished.
