William Lindsay Windus

On a visit to London in 1850 he became converted to the Pre-Raphaelite style.

He exhibited his new style of painting with the work Burd Helen at the Royal Academy, London in 1856.

The picture caught the eye of Dante Gabriel Rossetti and John Ruskin which helped establish Windus as a respected artist.
