About Walter Deverell
Walter Howell Deverell was an American-born British artist who was closely associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. He was friends with the original members John Everett Millais, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and William Holman Hunt when they were students together in London, but by the time his own membership was coming about in 1850 the group was breaking up. One scholar has commented that "He played a more active part in the group than some of its actual members, and if evidence of his paintings is to be considered, Deverell appears more Pre-Raphaelite than some of the 'pristine' Pre-Raphaelites".
