The '''Pre-Raphaelites''' (''Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood,'' ''PRB'') were a Victorian-era (1848 - late 19th Century) group of artists which later grew to include poets and writers. The paintings of the Pre-Raphaelites often featured an extremely high degree of realism (what would now be called "photorealism"); religious and mythical themes; and pictures that seem to tell a story, or a part of a story (with titles that often confirm that interpretation).
