| Synopsis: |
Alfred William Hunt (1830 - 1896) was one of a group of progressive English painters who introduced a new intensity and meticulousness to landscape painting in the 1850s and early 1860s, adapting the Ruskinian principle of 'truth to nature' to a highly individual form of Pre-Raphaelite observation of nature. This catalogue accompanies the first retrospective exhibition of Hunt's work for more than 100 years. |
