Beautiful book. As it focuses on this museum's collection, it's more a companion book to the subject then a primary source, but it has some interesting tales to tell.

The Victoria & Albert Museum holds a significant collection of Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood art works. This is a beautiful book with colour reproductions of paintings and interesting narrative. There is a large focus on Edward Byrne-Jones with other principal artists examined in detail together with many elements of their technique, influences, and personal lives discussed
