Happy Birthday to May Morris, born a day after her father William's 28th birthday, #OTD in 1862. A talented designer and artist in many media, she also managed the Morris & Co. embroidery dept. for many years and worked tirelessly to preserve her father’s legacy after his death.

French Realist Gustave Courbet was #BornOnThisDay 1819. His scandalous Le Somneil 1866 bears an intriguing resemblance to Rossetti's illustration for Goblin Market 1862. Possible 'Sleep' model Joanna Hiffernan was also painted by Courbet in 1855-6 predating Rossetti's Lady Lilith
