-Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood
-Ford Madox Brown was a British painter associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group of artists who rejected the academic conventions of their time in favor of a return to the style and spirit of early Italian Renaissance painting. Brown's works often depicted historical subjects and scenes from literature with meticulous attention to detail and vivid color. He was known for his complex compositions and narrative storytelling, which conveyed moral and social messages. One of his most famous works is "Work," a painting that depicts different social classes engaged in various forms of labor. Brown's contributions to the Pre-Raphaelite movement helped pave the way for the development of modern British art.
