Visitors to The Bowes Museum now have until 8 November to enjoy the Pre-Raphaelite Knights: Reinventing the Medieval World exhibition.
The exhibition, which opened in February, explores myths and legends through the eyes of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a secret band of Victorian artists, writers and poets who rebelled against the Royal Academy's promotion of the work of Raphael.
The Museum is delighted that individuals and institutions including the Tate, The Fitzwilliam Museum, Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, Guildhall Art Gallery and Manchester Art Gallery have agreed to extend their loans of paintings, books, sculptures and more featuring maidens in distress, knights in armour, saints and chivalry for visitors to see.
