The Pre-Raphaelites formed in London in 1848. Its chief members were Holman Hunt, Millais and Rossetti. As a group they lasted for little more than a decade, but gave a new direction to Victorian art which lasted into the 20th century. They determined to paint from nature, with objective truthfulness, emulating the work of the great Italian artists before Raphael. They turned to the Bible and classical mythology for inspiration, and some of their best-known works are shown in this book, including Hunt's Light of the World; and Millais' Christ in the House of His Parents.

Some artists are known for their fascination with specific themes. Monet, for example, is forever associated with gardens, particularly the water lilies which he painted again and again under different lighting conditions. Van Gogh, similarly, is known for his flowers, instantly recognizable worldwide and yet so foreign to the way our eyes normally see. Each book in this new series illustrates and analyses its theme, explaining how and why the artist moved to it and showing the results of their obsessions in their art.
