James Collinson (aka “The Dormouse”) by Helen D Newman (2016)
As one of the original members of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, James Collinson has been largely dismissed, and if he is mentioned at all it is always in relation to his broken engagement to Christina Rossetti following his re-conversion to Roman Catholicism. Recognition, both as a man and an artist is long overdue, and it is hoped that this book goes some way to restoring his reputation. Helen Newman is a long standing member of the Pre-Raphaelite Society.
Paperback / 199 pages / 42 illustrations / Price: £10 plus P&P (in the UK) // ISBN: 978‑0‑9562828‑8‑0 Published by Reuben Books, Foulsham (October 2016)
