Exhibition 'Romance & Rebellion: The Art of the Victorians' in The Higgins Bedford
This impressive new exhibition drawn from the internationally acclaimed Cecil Higgins Art Gallery Collection offers a romp through Victorian art. No other period in art history has been so full of stylistic extremes from the Pre-Raphaelites to the Decadents and the Aesthetes to the Exquisites. The exhibition charts the period chronologically and reveals how these styles developed and flourished alongside one another. It features over forty stunning works by artists including J.M.W. Turner, Edward Burne-Jones, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, James McNeill Whistler, Richard Dadd and Frederic Lord Leighton. Entry is free.
