It discovers the locations for some of their greatest works and also points the reader towards the many superb stained glass and murals to be seen in churches and properties open to the public. The second part of the book has details of ten trails in the county to explore. The trails include visits to houses and buildings open to the public, that have connections such as Ightham Mote, Smallhythe and Knole and also a number of art galleries and churches. It is a companion volume to the author’s Pre-Raphaelite Trail in Sussex, but can also be used independently. The author, Peter Wise is an art historian with a particular interest in Victorian art. He has lived in Sussex virtually all his life but has just recently moved to Australia with his family. He is a member of the William Morris society and other Pre-Raphaelite societies. This is his second book for SB Publications. His first, the Pre-Raphaelite Trail in Sussex has been reprinted and revised in 2008 and retails at £8.99 S. B. Publications |
