‘Pro-Raphaelites’. The Classical Ideal in Religious Art and the Actor Potential of Artworks in Estonia and Livonia in the First Half of the Nineteenth Century

Summary/Abstract: This article analyses Baltic German religious art in the first half of the nineteenth century with a special focus on the network of artistic influences and the re-establishment of the classical ideal. Baltic German artists were in contact with the Nazarenes, whose ideals followed Raphael’s oeuvre, trying to merge art and religion into a coherent whole. Their influence can also be seen in Baltic German religious art, where idealised forms and copies of the works of Renaissance masters were in favour.
