Julie Codell will be discussing the influence John Keats had on the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood on Thursday 20 June at 12 noon. The talk, entitled “Pre-Raphaelites Painting Keats”, will be a rare opportunity for a Rome-based audience to listen to the first-class scholar whose seminal 1995 article ‘Pre-Raphaelite Artists between Social Transgressions and Painterly Conventions’ set new standards for understanding Victorian visual culture.
