Inspired on historical characters, The Worst Man in London is a remarkable portrait of the world of the pre-Raphaelites, in the Victorian era. Great artists, such as Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Algernon Charles Swinburne and Elizabeth Siddal, who lived and created in an atmosphere of freedom, vice and amorality, and the famous critic John Ruskin…. Amongst them, Charles Augustus Howell — the worst man in London.
