William Holman Hunt-Amaryllis

William Holman Hunt(2 aprilie 1827 – 7 septembrie 1910) a fost un pictor englez, unul din fondatorii Frăției Pre-Rafaelite(Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood).William Holman Hunt si-a schimbat numele de  „Hobman” in Holman dupa ce a observat ca un pastor i-a pronuntat gresit numele cand s-a botezat la biserica Saint Mary the Virgin, Ewell.Dupa ce a urmat cursurile  de arta ale  scolii Royal Academy, Hunt s-a razvratit impotriva influentei  fondatorului ei, Sir Joshua Reynolds. A infiintat miscarea  pre-rafaelita in 1848, dupa ce l-a intalnit pe  poetul  si artistul Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Impreuna cu John Everett Millais au cautat sa  revitalizeze arta  punand accent pe observarea detaliata a  lumii naturale intrun spirit de quasi-religios devotament fata de adevar.

Aceasta abordare religioasa a fost influentata de calitatile  spirituale   ale artei medievale, in opozitie cu pretinsul  rationalism al  Renasterii  intruchipate de Raphael.
