Pre-Raphaelite Rock Stars

Ophelia by John Everett Millais

As I said in some older posts, I'm currently obsessed with the Pre-Raphaelite art. For those of you who don't know this art movement, here's a brief introduction: the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) was a secret group of English artists founded by the painters Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais and William Holman Hunt, who were joined by other painters later, such as William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones. The group's intention was to take back English art to the freshness and originality they found in paintings of the early Italian Renaissance.
I'm absolutely in love with the PRB's paintings and models/muses (Lizzie Siddal now is on my list of "Women who inspire me") and since I reached my life's purpose, the next thing I want to do is make a pilgrimage to the Tate Britain (or visit a Pre-Raphaelite exhibition, if possible) and Elizabeth Siddal's grave.

OK, now I've bored you enough, so I'll tell you what this post is about: since I knew the PRB through Catherine James' book, I decided to write about rock stars and their connection to the Brotherhood.

Fashion Inspiration: The Who's Glow Girls (Part 2)

This is the second part of a previous post about The Who's Glow Girls' style. I made it for two reasons:

  1. Heather Daltrey's modeling photo from Vogue, November 1967


This is the first modeling photo of Heather I've ever found! It was sent to me by tattoo-the-who (a Tumblr user) for my blog about Heather. After doing research, I found out it is from an issue of Vogue released in November 1967. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this picture, it is so wonderful! I hope I'll find more.

     2.  This collage of Alison Entwistle

Alison Wise

I remembered that I didn't include Alison Entwistle in the first post, so I decided to make a collage of her, too.

Mrs Who Foxy Lady: Heather Taylor


Here's my favourite rock'n'roll woman: Heather Taylor aka Mrs. Who or Foxy Lady, second wife of Roger Daltrey of the Who, who call her his "Jolly Green Giant". I know she's not as famous as other Sixties girls, but I saw that there aren't so many people that talk about her on the net, so I decided to post her biography. If you want to reblog it, no problem, but please always cite this blog as the original source. You know, I spent many months looking for information about Heather. Anyway, I'm happy to share her biography with you and hope you'll enjoy it.

EDIT: Since I found pretty much information about Heather, I created a website about her where you can find much more info. Click here to visit it.
