At length their long kiss severed, with sweet smart:

... yet still their mouths, burnt red,
Fawned on each other where they lay apart.

"Nuptial Sleep": (1828-82)

St George has just slain the dragon & won the hand of Princess Sabra. Jane Burden, who went on to marry William Morris, was Rossetti’s model. His intense attraction to Jane, while he was involved with Lizzie Sidall, is a powerful subtext here.

"Lady Lilith," Dante Rossetti, 1868.

Rossetti described his subject as a "modern Lilith," which suggests an unfortunate degree of Victorian infanticide but a very fortunate degree of Victorian cowgirl.

Lilith was Adam’s first wife, created as an equal out of the same clay. Medieval texts have it that she refused to lie under Adam, & left the garden of Eden, refusing to return, to become the ultimate she-demon, capable of unspeakable evil.

had an urge to paint a classical art piece but make it Good Omens, and like, when I was studying art ten years ago I never thought that one day I'd be drawing a widow's peak on Rossetti's Proserpine, but here we are 🤷🏻‍♂️
