Poetry in Beauty: The Pre-Raphaelite Art of Marie Spartali Stillman
December 22, 2015
 | Marie Spartali Stillman was one of the few professional female artists working in the second half of the 19th century. She was an important presence in the Victorian art world and closely affiliated with members of the Pre-Raphaelite circle. Poetry in Beauty, the first retrospective of her work, will showcase approximately 50 works by the artist. Spartali Stillman’s style reflects her British Pre-Raphaelite training as well as the influence of Renaissance art, derived from the many years she lived and worked in Italy. Works from public and private collections in the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada, many of which have not been exhibited since her lifetime, will also be on view. |
| The exhibition is being held at the Delaware Museum of Art located at 2301 Kentmere Parkway, Wilmington, Delaware 19806 from November 7, 2015 - January 31, 2016. | |
