The man who brought down the Liverpool Academy

Sue Bentley

It is a truth universally acknowledged that the Liverpool Academy failed in 1867 because they supported Pre-Raphaelite art. Christopher Newall, in his comprehensive catalogue of the 2016 Walker Art Gallery exhibition, reported that in 1857 "battle lines were drawn on the issue of Pre-Raphaelitism and its legitimacy". This book looks at an alternative view, and examines the activiites of William Gawin Herdman (1805 - 1882) which subverted and eventually destroyed the Academy.
