Loved this Ophelia needs to be loved and cherished wasnt right how she was treated same as elizabeth a truly gifted poet and artist who never got the recognition she deserved during her life it breaks my heart she worked so hard
My only complaint? Way to short! I really like the way reported on Jane Burden, overlooked by society and historians, then and now. Nice work and this was so engaging, thank you💐
Thank you for your reportage of William Morris, why was he never Sir William Morris? After all he contributed art and ideas that have meant so much and continue to mean so much to England and to the world. I am so glad that his home and work areas have been preserved for future generations. Thanks for keeping up this important work of keeping William Morris and others like him alive and in our collective thoughts💐
Williams Arts & Crafts movement is verry relevant today . If only to learn modern lefttists what Socialism originaly stood for . To enlighten the lives of everyday working Brittish people , and bring beauty and harmony in their lives . How differend today with Woke , LHBTI , mass immigration and the likes . To me they forgott about the nation and its culture completely , to create a distopy in stead of harmony . Long live William Morris .
The closest to that that I know of is Ken Russell’s 1967 film “Dante’s Inferno” starring Judith Paris as Lizzie and Oliver Reed as her husband Dante Gabriel Rossetti.
You know Morris is such a relavant figure today. Not just in terms of social justice and climate change but his philosophy on hand made things. People are returning to taking up lost skills like embroidery and furniture design and regenerative agriculture and …. meaning creative hobbies and careers. There are trends to rather having a sustainable wardrobe of well made properly fitting clothes from natural fibres. People are tired of the repercussions of fast fashion and design trends which take something beautiful and exploit it as a trend until it’s sickening to look at. I think a Netflix series on Morris and his interactions with people (philosophers artists craftsmen) and his personal character arc would be absolutely inspiring and extremely popular! The world is ripe for an arts and crafts revival movement!
Hi Jessye, hope you are well - I keep looking out for more of your videos but you seem to have been quiet for a while. On one of your vids I mentioned looking into the Caira sisters, (cant remember which vid it was, sorry!), as great examples of powerful women in the art world of the early 1900's. Did you manage to find anything? I've got someone else you may be interested in from much earlier - late 1700's to early 1800's to be exact. A pewter manufacturer called Susannah Cocks. She took over her husbands business when he died at a young age and made a great success of it, shocking the London regency society of the time. Again, not a great deal of information about her other than examples of her pewter items which can still be found if you trawl the auction sites and antique shops. Hope this is of interest to you and all the best :-)
Beautifully presented, thankyou. I also watched "Several Circles" contribution on the Preraphaelites which is also excellent however she features a photograph of Elisabeth which clearly is not her, the nose shape is the giveaway.
What a beautiful channel you have. Being an artist myself I really like the period info about these artist and models. I remember years ago seeing a documentary on the Gibson girls , brilliant stuff. Thank you much ms. J.B
Hi, congratulations on the interview. Sorry for the mistakes, I'm Italian. I am a fan of Pink Floyd and, in particular, of Syd Barrett. A couple of years ago I went to Cambridge and London to see the places of their beginnings. In London I also went to Earl's Court, of course without going into Duggie's apartment, but taking some photos on the sidewalk where Syd did a photo shoot with a girl (Iggy the Eskimo). As you know, in 1968, Duggie shared that apartment with Syd Barret and I'm pretty sure the room you did the interview in is the one Syd lived in. One last thing: I didn't understand who the blond boy with glasses in the photo at 3:36 is (maybe Bob Klose?), But I'm pretty sure that the one on the right is a young Syd Barrett.
This was such a great video! We just did a podcast episode on the Pre-Raphaelite sisterhood and I am working on an instagram post on Jane's role in the arts and crafts movement. I found this so helpful and am amazed at how beautiful her textiles are! Thank you!!
