Study for Predella No. 2, for "Dante's Dream": Dante Awakening from His Dream, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, 1879 https://t.co/I5XJIqMdNl #dantegabrielrossetti #harvardartmuseums
For there is no friend like a sister, in calm or stormy weather, to cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray, to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands.
-Christina G. Rossetti
Perséfone comiendo la granada que la hará entrar en el reino de los muertos con su esposo Hades que la había raptado por su belleza. Dante Gabriel Rossetti.

Ymosododd y bardd Robert Buchanan ar Rossetti mewn adolygiad ym 1871, gan ddisgrifio ei beantiadau yn 'morbid', ac yn dweud bod dim byd hollol call am ei gwaith.
DG Rossetti, Rosamund Deg, 1861
Poet Robert Buchanan publicly attacked Rossetti's paintings in an 1871 review, calling them 'morbid' and 'fleshly', and describing their 'weary, wasting, yet exquisite sensuality; nothing virile, nothing tender, nothing completely sane.’
DG Rossetti, Fair Rosamund, 1861
Know'st thou not at the fall of the leaf
How the heart feels a languid grief
Laid on it for a covering,
And how sleep seems a goodly thing
In Autumn at the fall of the leaf?

Rossetti's Lady Lilith:
Adorned with poppies, Lilith looks with haughty eyes
Upon her fabled hair of gold.
Like Dorian, she wont grow old;
But veiled behind her guise, is treachery and lies.

Portrait of William Holman Hunt by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, 1853. Hunt died #onthisday 7th September 1910, aged 83.
Hunt also portrayed his contemporaries such as his PRB friends Rossetti (1853) & Millais (1853). Also shown is Edward Lear (1857). The latter is almost hallucinatory in its scrutiny.
