关于作品

The 'Blessed Damozel' was originally a poem by Rossetti about the yearning of a loved one in heaven. It was written in 1848 and first published in 1850 in the Pre-Raphaelite magazine The Germ, although frequently revised thereafter. In 1871 Rossetti was commissioned to create a visual version of the poem. This is the second of two sketches for the painting, which is in a private collection. The model was Alexa Wilding. She is clad like an angel in white but her appearance is nonetheless corporeal and sensuous. It is an excellent example of Rossetti's skill in handling chalks.

Dante Gabriel Rossetti当时的生活

完整生平
  1. 1862–1882

    A Tudor house at 16 Cheyne Walk

    After his wife’s death Rossetti leased a Tudor house at 16 Cheyne Walk in Chelsea, where he lived for twenty years surrounded by extravagant furnishings and a parade of exotic birds and animals.

  2. 1869–1874

    Kelmscott Manor: a summer house and a retreat

    In 1869 Morris and Rossetti rented Kelmscott Manor at Kelmscott, Oxfordshire, as a summer home, but it became a retreat for Rossetti and Jane Morris: they spent summers there with the Morrises’ children while William Morris travelled to Iceland in 1871 and 1873.

  3. 1874

    Morris cuts Rossetti out of the firm

    In 1874 Morris reorganised his decorative arts firm, cutting Rossetti out of the business, and the polite fiction that both men were in residence with Jane at Kelmscott could no longer be maintained.

  4. 1874

    An abrupt departure from Kelmscott

    In July 1874 Rossetti abruptly left Kelmscott and never returned.

  5. after 1874

    A recluse at Cheyne Walk

    In time Rossetti’s way of life became withdrawn, and only his closest friends saw him; his late years are marked by an ever more morbid mood, abuse of alcohol and chloral hydrate, and a life as a recluse.
