VICTORIAN Artists in Photographs:

VICTORIAN Artists in Photographs: The World of G F Watts is the title of an exhibition showing at the Mercer Art Gallery, Swan Road, Harrogate from April 26.
A Who’s Who of Victorian artists and celebrities, the exhibition features more than 150 photographs.
As well as the Pre Raphaelites Rossetti, Holman Hunt and Burne Jones, there’s Frederick Lord Leighton and Harrogate’s own William Powell Frith.
Other familiar figures include Gladstone, Disraeli and Queen Victoria, influential thinkers such as Ruskin, Carlyle and Darwin, plus literary greats Tennyson, Dickens and Eliot. One display focuses on artist George Frederick Watts, and another looks at artists’ models.
A complementary selection of Victorian paintings from the Harrogate Fine Art Collection will also be on show.
The exhibition runs until July 13.
A wide-ranging programme of talks includes V&A costume expert Edwina Ehrman, Mark Bills, Curator of the Watts Gallery, Pre Raphaelite expert Frank Milner, and Colin Harding, Curator of Photography, National Media Museum, Bradford.
