Frank Cadogan Cowper (1877-1958) represents perhaps the final flowering of the Pre-Raphaelite movement in Britain. Although fashions in art had changed and left him behind he appears not to have cared and to have painted in the style that appealed to him. His best-known painting is Vanity. He also worked as a book illustrator.

A kind of spin-off of my Strange Tears community at Livejournal, but dealing with 20th century art as well as that of the 19th century. Even some photography. You won't find any abstract art here though. There will be nudes though, so if you have a problem with that you've been warned.
