Dante Gabriel Rossetti was a British poet, illustrator, painter, translator and founded the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood in 1848 with William Holman Hunt and John Everett Millais. His work influenced the European Symbolists and was a major precursor of the Aesthetic movement. Rosetti's art was characterised by its sensuality and its medieval revivalism.
Rossetti's personal life was closely linked to his work, especially his relationships with his models and muses Elizabeth Siddal (who was also his wife), Fanny Cornforth and Jane Morris.

About Sancta Lilias
"Sancta Lilias" by Dante Gabriel Rossetti represents an iconic head of the damozel who is holding irises in her right hand; her head, looking downward to the left, is set against a gold background uniform with the gold of the area that would have had her drapery. This is an early, unfinished version of Rossetti's The Blessed Damozel. The subject derives from one of Rosetti's own poems, first published in 1850 in The Germ. The poem expresses the longing felt by a dead woman for her lover, who is still alive.About the Framed Prints
