Christina Dante Gabriel Poems Princes Progress Rossetti


The Princes Progress

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating image created by the renowned English painter and poet, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, in 1866. This masterpiece was inspired by the narrative poem "The Prince's Progress" from Christina Rossetti's collection "Goblin Market and Other Poems," published in 1862. The intriguing relationship between the two siblings, Dante and Christina, and their artistic collaboration is an essential aspect of Victorian literary history. In Rossetti's painting, we see a mystical procession of three princes, led by a hooded figure, who are on a journey through a dreamlike landscape. The princes are depicted with an ethereal, otherworldly quality, their faces illuminated by a warm, golden light. They are surrounded by a myriad of enchanting creatures, including goblins, fairies, and various mythical beings. The painting's rich colors and intricate details evoke a sense of wonder and magic, transporting the viewer into a fantastical realm. Christina Rossetti's poem tells the story of three brothers who embark on a journey to find the "Lilith," a seductive goblin woman who tempts them with forbidden fruits. The princes become enchanted by her beauty and succumb to her charms, ultimately losing their way and their souls. The painting captures the essence of this narrative, with the hooded figure possibly representing Lilith or a guide leading the princes into the unknown. The collaboration between the two siblings extended beyond poetry and painting, as they also shared a deep bond and mutual inspiration. Their artistic partnership is a testament to the creative energy and innovative spirit that flourished during the Victorian era. "The Princes Progress" remains an enduring symbol of the magical and imaginative world that Dante and Christina Rossetti created together.
