EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back to September 1853, witnessing a tender moment between two iconic figures of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. The image depicts Dante Gabriel Rossetti, the renowned artist, being sketched by his wife and muse, Elizabeth Siddal. The scene is filled with an air of artistic intimacy as Rossetti sits in a relaxed pose while Siddal delicately captures his likeness on paper using pen and ink. Their connection is palpable; it's evident that they share not only a deep love but also an unbreakable bond through their shared passion for art. Rossetti's intense gaze meets Siddal's focused expression as she meticulously studies every detail of her husband's features. This double portrait beautifully encapsulates the dynamics between artist and model, blurring the lines between creator and subject. Both individuals are dressed in Victorian attire, adding an element of historical charm to the composition. The image serves as a testament to their creative partnership and showcases Siddal's talent as both an artist herself and a source of inspiration for Rossetti. This remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into the private world of these two influential figures who played pivotal roles in shaping the Pre-Raphaelite movement. It stands as a timeless tribute to their enduring love story and artistic collaboration.
