EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Mrs William Morris, 1860" showcases the stunning profile of Jane Morris, an English artist's model who epitomized the Pre-Raphaelite ideal of beauty. The pencil drawing was skillfully executed by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, one of the prominent artists associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Measuring 21.9x17.8 cm, this intimate portrait can be found in the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum at the University of Cambridge in the UK. The delicate cross hatching technique used by Rossetti adds depth and texture to Mrs Morris' serene expression. Jane Burden, later known as Jane Morris after her marriage to William Morris, not only served as a muse but also became a source of inspiration for both artists. Her elegance and ethereal charm are beautifully captured in this monochrome study. As you gaze upon this print, you cannot help but admire her timeless beauty and graceful demeanor. With every stroke of his pencil, Rossetti reveals Mrs Morris' allure while paying homage to her role as an artistic muse. This artwork is a testament to the enduring legacy of both Jane Morris and the Pre-Raphaelite movement itself. It serves as a reminder that true beauty transcends time and continues to captivate audiences even today.
