About Rossetti — Pre-Raphaelite Stunner
Rossetti's Pre-Raphaelite "stunner" style is the visual language of 1860s–70s London painted as coded poetry: copper-red hair cascading against blood-crimson velvet, Quattrocento-flat picture planes, pomegranates and lilies handed across half-lengths of Jane Morris and Elizabeth Siddal.
Every surface carries meaning — gilt frames inscribed with the artist's own sonnets, embroidery rendered stitch by stitch, drapery deep with oil glaze. The mood is saturated jewel-tone romance, ornament-dense and unapologetically literary.
