EDITORS COMMENTS
Full-Length Portrait of a Woman" is an exquisite 19th-century artwork created by the renowned English painter and poet, Dante Gabriel Rossetti. This pen and brown ink drawing with brush and brown wash over graphite on ivory laid paper laid down on board, showcases Rossetti's exceptional artistic skill and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood's influence on fashion and portraiture. The subject of the portrait is a woman dressed in the fashionable attire of the era. She wears a high-necked, long-sleeved blouse, a voluminous skirt, and a bonnet adorned with a bow. Her profile is turned slightly towards the viewer, inviting a sense of intimacy and introspection. The intricate details of her clothing and accessories, such as the delicate lace on her cuffs and the intricate pattern on her bonnet, are rendered with meticulous precision. The black and white drawing, reminiscent of the artistic style of the time, captures the essence of the Victorian era's aesthetic sensibilities. Rossetti's masterful use of pen and ink, combined with the subtle brown wash, creates a striking contrast between the light and shadow, adding depth and texture to the portrait. This full-length portrait is a testament to Rossetti's artistic vision and his ability to capture the beauty and elegance of the women of his time. It is a valuable addition to the vast collection of heritage art at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate audiences. The portrait invites us to reflect on the fashion trends of the past and the enduring allure of the Victorian era. The artwork's timeless beauty and historical significance make it a must-see for anyone interested in art, fashion, and the history of the 19th century. Whether viewed in person at the Art Institute of Chicago or as a print, this portrait by Dante Gabriel Rossetti is sure to leave a lasting impression.
