Measurements: Sheet 11.25 inches high x 9 inches wide More about the artist: A painter and poet, Dante Gabriel Rossetti was a key member of the Pre-Raphaelites in England, a group of painters and poets led by Rossetti, John Ruskin, William Holman Hunt and John Millais. Their aesthetic goal was to return to a medieval period, 'pre Raphael', meaning before the influence of the painter Raphael (1483-1520) and to re-vitalize the medieval focus on religion and realism that held closely to nature. Rossetti was born to the exiled Italian scholar, Gabriel Rossetti, and was the brother of Christina Rossetti, a prominent poet. Dante Rosetti became a student from 1845 to 1847 at the Royal Academy Antique School, and there began the association with Hunt and Millais. Rossetti's early Pre-Raphaelite paintings had religious and mystical symbolism, but criticism of his painting, led him to show his paintings in private circumstances and to do watercolors instead of oils. His primary theme became romantic love, and in many of his works, he depicted his wife, Elizabeth Siddal, whom he married in 1860. However, two years later she died. He spent his last years in seclusion, apparently depressed by public criticism of his poetry and paintings and by personal experiences including complications with women and drugs mixed with alcohol to combat insomnia .Sell Smarter with Kyozou.Inventory and Ecommerce Management
