"The story behind the unique series of Rossetti's drawings of his Muse and wife Elizabeth Siddal is the story of a love affair which has all the elements of high Victorian Melodrama - romance, obsession, ill-health, tragic death and mysterious events in a graveyard." "Rossetti first met Elizabeth in 1852 soon after she had been 'discovered' working in the back room of a milliner's shop. He fell headlong in love with her and later claimed that on this day 'he felt his destiny was defined'. For Rossetti, Elizabeth represented the ideal woman. She possessed the attributes of the perfect 'stunner' - red gold hair, and luminous eyes - and her whole attitude of fragility, expressive of melancholy, appealed deeply to the most romantic of British poet painters." "Elizabeth's influence on Rossetti's work was profound; in particular she inspired in him a spirit of refinement and austerity which he was never able to find again, and is nowhere more obvious than in the series of wonderfully obsessive portraits which are reproduced together for the first time in this book."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

In the twenty-first century, even those who do not know Lizzie Siddal's name will recognize her face: she is Millais's doomed Ophelia and Rossetti's beatified Beatrice in two of the nineteenth century's most famous paintings. As Lucinda Hawksley explores in Lizzie Siddal, Face of the Pre-Raphaelites, Siddal's fame was a remarkable phenomenon: in a time when she was the opposite of the Victorian beauty (she was red-haired, quite tall, and painfully thin), she nonetheless scaled the social ranks to become the unlikely ideal. A pivotal figure in London's artistic world of the mid-nineteenth century, Lizzie's short life ended in a delirium of opium. In this, the first full work devoted solely to Lizzie—her austere beginnings, quick rise to fame, and tragic end—Hawksley brings together the worlds of art and literature with style and verve. Lizzie Siddal was not merely the Pre-Raphaelites' obsession and muse, she was a talented poet and artist in her own right. Her tragic and haunting life story serves as a cautionary tale, offering many parallels to the modern-day world of art, fashion, beauty, and our obsession with what we hold to be the ideal.

A beautifully designed gift book devoted to Pre-Raphaelite artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti, taking a fresh and fascinating look at his exquisite portraits of women. Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882), best known and admired for his striking and seductive portraits of women, was one of the founding members of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group of artists whose work is inspired by the art of the early Italian Renaissance. Rossetti’s powerful and unconventional portraits, with their sumptuous, jewel-like colors, are explored in this beautiful gift book. Rossetti defined his experiences through his passion for his subjects, and this book traces his deliberate intertwining of art and life. His models such as Jane Morris, Elizabeth Siddal and his sister Christina, were his inspiration, and in his rejection of conventional beauty, he redefined difference as desirable. Through his view of women, Rossetti confronted the staid nineteenth-century public with a new and powerful image of women, and the allure of that power is still felt today.

One of the most unconventional and controversial figures among the great Victorians, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, poet and painter, was a complex personality who has long awaited reassessment by a sympathetic biographer. Rosalie Glynn Grylls (Lady Mander) has confirmed here again the reputation as a talented biographer achieved by her Mary Shelley, still—after more than twenty years—the standard work on its subject. This new biography of Rossetti embodies the important letters between Rossetti and Mrs. Morris from the British Museum until now unavailable and much other hitherto unpublished material discovered in England and America in the course of Lady Mander’s research for this book. Included are several hitherto unknown illustrations of considerable interest.

A ground breaking new book that considers all Siddal poems with reference to female and primarily male counterparts, adding substantially to knowledge of her work as a writer, and their shared contemporary concerns. Dante Rossetti, Swinburne, Tennyson, Ruskin and Keats were either known to her or a source of influence on the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood with which she was associated, and certain of their texts are compared with hers to discuss interplay between erotic and spiritual love, the ballad tradition, nineteenth-century feminism, and the Romantic concept of the conjoined physical and spectral body. Siddal’s artwork is used to introduce each chapter, while other Pre-Raphaelite paintings illuminate the texts and further the inter-disciplinary philosophy of the Brotherhood. This important and stimulating book focuses on the intrinsic merit of Siddal’s poetics whilst advocating a research method that could have multiple applications elsewhere.
