Art History and Names
This is my Own Damn Fault for never caring to look of course, but just found out(via This Video Essay by Snappy Dragon. plz Watch :>) that the Pre-Raphaelites were NOT, in fact, Pre-Raphael but POST Raphael, by ALLOT, like "Romantic 1850s English Victorians" Allot; they just liked medieval art and ~blamed~ Raphael for aspects of contemporary art they didn't LIKE; and Dear Readers I am FUMING!!!!
Also, upgrading this from the tags cuz it's Vital Public information, 'Raphael Sanzio de Urbino' is Raph's full name, which you can absolutely read(I think) as "God Has Healed the Saint of the City" and DAMN that name is Fly as Hell XD XD
