I...Oh, I want to fly across the ocean to see this! I swoon for the Arts and Crafts movement. I think I was meant to be a member of the Pre-Raphaelites. Drat, I'm a bit late though. I'm so glad that you were able to see such a gorgeous exhibit. And also a bit jealous but I'm also jealous of the degree you're pursuing. So cool!M.M.E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09810117749263731836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7721530240673009820.post-19667958983749506402011-06-23T14:35:30.582+01:002011-06-23T14:35:30.582+01:00Cannot wait to see this.Cannot wait to see this.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09160243143657016519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7721530240673009820.post-38362941451790311252011-06-22T17:27:27.011+01:002011-06-22T17:27:27.011+01:00I wish I knew more about Art.

And Leighton remains my favourite, so much so that I went to Leighton House the next week. A lot of the items were reconstructions so it was a little disappointing but I still loved his Arabian Bath. I was ecstatic to discover that another of my favourite artists lived in a house across Leighton's backyard. Marcus Stone may have been a Victorian sentimentalist but I love his prints.Ariannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17652434242553278040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7721530240673009820.post-68688411538159845002011-06-22T12:30:02.939+01:002011-06-22T12:30:02.939+01:00Oooh I can't wait to go to this with my dad wh...Oooh I can't wait to go to this with my dad when he's back from holiday!
