“There is nothing like books - of all things sold incomparably the cheapest, of all pleasure the least palling, they take up little room, keep quiet when they are not wanted, and, when taken up, bring us face to face with the choicest men who ever lived, at their choicest moments.”

Samuel Palmer was an English Romantic landscape painter and poet, known for his contributions to the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Born on January 27, 1805, in London, he was a key figure in the movement that sought to return to the simplicity and clarity of early Renaissance art. Palmer's work often depicted the English countryside with a sense of mystical beauty, influenced by his close friendship with William Blake. He passed away on May 24, 1881. more
