      abstract = {From the prize-winning author of William Morris comes a  new biography of Edward Burne-Jones, the greatest British  artist of the second half of the nineteenth century. The  angels on our Christmas cards, the stained glass in our  churches, the great paintings in our galleries - Edward  Burne-Jones's work is all around us. The most admired  British artist of his generation, he was a leading figure  with Oscar Wilde in the aesthetic movement of the 1880s,  inventing what became a widespread 'Burne-Jones look'. The  bridge between Victorian and modern art, he influenced not  just his immediate circle but artists such as Klimt and  Picasso. In this gripping book Fiona MacCarthy explores and  re-evaluates his art and life - his battle against vicious  public hostility, the romantic susceptibility to female  beauty that would inspire his art and ruin his marriage,  his ill health and depressive sensibility, the devastating  rift with his great friend and collaborator William Morris  as their views on art and politics diverged. With new  research and fresh historical perspective, The Last  Pre-Raphaelite tells the extraordinary, dramatic story of  Burne-Jones as an artist, a key figure in Victorian society  and a peculiarly captivating man.},
