EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in the lives of renowned English poet Christina Rossetti and her mother, Frances Mary Lavinia Rossetti. Created by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Christina's brother and Frances' son, this chalk drawing showcases the deep bond between mother and daughter. The portrait is housed in the prestigious National Portrait Gallery in London. Dressed in Victorian attire, both women exude elegance and grace. Christina wears a bonnet that adds a touch of sophistication to her ensemble, while her mother dons a beautiful dress that reflects the fashion of the era. Their clothing choices speak volumes about their social standing as well as their appreciation for artistry. The image transports us back to 1877 when this tender moment was immortalized on paper. It serves as a testament to the enduring love between mothers and daughters throughout history. As we gaze at this print, we are reminded of Christina's literary contributions which have left an indelible mark on British literature. This print not only captures familial ties but also offers us insight into 19th-century England - its customs, fashion trends, and societal norms. Preserved through time by The Print Collector, it allows us to delve into our rich cultural heritage. As we admire this exquisite piece of art from "English Women" by Edith Sitwell published in 1942 by Collins London Publishing House; let us celebrate these remarkable women who have shaped our world with their talents and unwavering spirit.
