The Cult of Beauty: The Aesthetic Movement 1860-1900






This exhibition celebrates the Aesthetic Movement, which particularly started to take off towards the end of the Victorian Era. The movement strongly contrasted against other contemporary artistic movements, such as the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood; whilst the PRB were strongly illustrating narratives, the Aesthetics aimed to concentrate on the form and beauty of an object.
