This is the first full-scale study of the drawings and paintings of the Brontļæ½ sisters and their brother, Branwell, including the first catalogue of all known Brontļæ½ illustrations, published and unpublished. The Art of the Brontļæ½s comprises 400 illustrated entries, recording such details as medium, dating, provenance, sources, style, and arguments for attribution; and documenting many previously unknown drawings and paintings. In addition, a sequence of narrative chapters provides new material on each of the four Brontļæ½ siblings and their relationships to the visual arts, suggesting ways in which their experience of drawing influenced their writing. An annotated and illustrated catalogue which is also a work of scholarly criticism, this publication is a landmark in Brontļæ½ studies and in the fields of nineteenth-century literature and painting generally.
