Pre-Raphaelite Women | National Museums Liverpool

In this instalment of our series, Curator of British Art, Charlotte Keenan, takes a look at the women painters who were integral to the development of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. Exploring the work of Emma Sandys, we take a closer look at how her painting 'Viola' possibly provides a commentary on the role of women in society during the time of the Pre-Raphaelites. National Museums Liverpool holds one of the finest collections of Pre-Raphaelite art in the world across its three art galleries; the Walker Art Gallery, Lady Lever Art Gallery and Sudley House.
