摘要：Pre-Raphaelite artists and others in their close circle had relatively limited involvement with the Australian colonies. Primary documentation for this is, therefore, quite scarce. The State Library of Victoria holds a small collection of such documents and realia. Those relating to Bernhard Smith have been published by Juliette Peers. Others are less well known. While not constituting a major source for any artist apart from Smith, they do enhance knowledge of the networks of relationships that developed between the movement and the Australian colonies, both in the mid-nineteenth century when it was initially developing, and over subsequent decades, when its influence became more established.
