Exhibitions
A Stairway to Pre-Raphaelite Heaven

It should come as no surprise to fans of Led Zeppelin that the rock group's founder Jimmy Page is a big collector of Pre-Raphaelite works (all that long hair and those forests in his "Stairway to Heaven" anthem must be down, in part, to the art of Dante Gabriel Rossetti and John Everett Millais). Indeed, art (and music) aficionados can see two tapestries by Edward Burne-Jones from Page's collection in the exhibition "Pre-Raphaelites: Victorian Avant-Garde" which opens this week at Tate Britain in London (12 September-13 January 2013).
