  • Simeon Solomon and the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili
    VISIONS OF LOVE: SIMEON SOLOMON AND THE HYPNEROTOMACHIA POLIPHILI D.M.R. Bentley When Simeon Solomon met his “idol” Dante Gabriel Rossetti “early in 1858” and began working in Rossetti’s studio (Reynolds 7), he entered an artistic circle whose influence on his work was marked enough for it to be considered Pre-Raphaelite. Prior to meeting Rossetti, Solomon had made only a few drawings that show the influence of Pre-Raphaelitism, most notably Faust and Marguerite (1856) and Eight Scenes from the Story of David and Jonathan (1856), but he would soon become in all things Pre-Raphaelite. 1 Love (1858) and The Death of Sir Galahad While Taking a Portion of the Holy Grail Administered by Joseph of Arimathea (1857-59) are Pre- Raphaelite in manner and subject-matter, while Nathan Reproving Daniel (1859), Babylon Hath Been a Golden Cup (1859), Erinna Taken from Sappho (1865), The Bride, Bridegroom and Sad Love (1865), and other works of the late 1850s and early 1860s are Pre-Raphaelite in manner but bespeak, by turns, Solomon’s Jewish heritage and his increasingly forthright homo- sexuality . Portrait of Edward Burne-Jones (1859) is an idealized portrait of the artist as a clear-eyed visionary, and Dante’s First Meeting with Beatrice (1859-63) is an homage to Rossetti that is so extreme in its imitativeness as to verge on parody. But did Solomon’s admiration of Rossetti and Burne- Jones include knowledge of the Hypnerotomachia Poliphili (1499), the book that was arguably as important to the “New Renaissance ” phase (Allingham 140) of Pre-Raphaelitism as was the Morte D’Arthur to its Oxford phase – and, moreover, identified by Rossetti as “the old Italian book ..

Fantasied images of women: representations of myths of the golden apples in “classic” Victorian Paintings This article proposes to examine the treatment of Greek myths of the golden apples in paintings by late-Victorian artists then categorized in contemporary reception as “classical” or “classic.” These terms recur in many reviews published in periodicals.1 The artists concerned were trained in the academic and neoclassical Continental tradition, and they turned to Antiquity for their forms and subjects.

  • Dante's Dream: Rossetti's Reading of the Vita Nuova Through the Lens Of
    Dante’s Dream: Rossetti’s Reading of the Vita Nuova Through the Lens of a Double Translation Chiara Moriconi, La Sapienza Università di Roma Abstract Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s work as an interlinguistic and intersemiotic translator of the Vita Nuova reveals much about his characteristic adaptation of Dante to the new sensibility of Victorian poetry and art. After translating the episode of the dream of Beatrice’s death into English, Rossetti goes on to illustrate it in an early watercolor version (1865), and then in a final monumental oil (1871) which will be closely examined in this article. By focusing on both phases of Rossettian translation this article means to show how Rossetti derives from the Florentine a distinctively Dantesque iconographic repertoire which he then develops into a post-Romantic set of poetics. It is precisely in the distance between Dante’s poetry and Rossetti’s double works of art that the latter’s understanding of and autonomy from Dante has to be traced. Keywords: Dante Gabriel Rossetti; Dante Alighieri; Vita Nuova; intersemiotic translation; interlinguistic translation; Victorian literature and art; Pathetic Fallacy One of the most crucial episodes of the Vita Nuova is Beatrice’s death as dreamt by Dante. Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s deep love of Dante Alighieri, inherited from his father Gabriele,1 led him to an early reading and translation into English of this chapter of the Florentine’s ‘rubrica ’. He set to illustrate the passage in 1848. The project, however, was soon laid aside and resumed between 1855 and 1857, when the artist made a watercolor of the same episode, Dante’s Dream at the Time of the Death of Beatrice .

  • Mundella Papers Scope
    University of Sheffield Library. Special Collections and Archives Ref: MS 6 - 9, MS 22 Title: Mundella Papers Scope: The correspondence and other papers of Anthony John Mundella, Liberal M.P. for Sheffield, including other related correspondence, 1861 to 1932. Dates: 1861-1932 (also Leader Family correspondence 1848-1890) Level: Fonds Extent: 23 boxes Name of creator: Anthony John Mundella Administrative / biographical history: The content of the papers is mainly political, and consists largely of the correspondence of Mundella, a prominent Liberal M.P. of the later 19th century who attained Cabinet rank. Also included in the collection are letters, not involving Mundella, of the family of Robert Leader, acquired by Mundella’s daughter Maria Theresa who intended to write a biography of her father, and transcriptions by Maria Theresa of correspondence between Mundella and Robert Leader, John Daniel Leader and another Sheffield Liberal M.P., Henry Joseph Wilson. The collection does not include any of the business archives of Hine and Mundella. Anthony John Mundella (1825-1897) was born in Leicester of an Italian father and an English mother. After education at a National School he entered the hosiery trade, ultimately becoming a partner in the firm of Hine and Mundella of Nottingham. He became active in the political life of Nottingham, and after giving a series of public lectures in Sheffield was invited to contest the seat in the General Election of 1868. Mundella was Liberal M.P. for Sheffield from 1868 to 1885, and for the Brightside division of the Borough from November 1885 to his death in 1897.

  • Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) Had Only Seven Members but Influenced Many Other Artists
    1 • Of course, their patrons, largely the middle-class themselves form different groups and each member of the PRB appealed to different types of buyers but together they created a stronger brand. In fact, they differed from a boy band as they created works that were bought independently. As well as their overall PRB brand each created an individual brand (sub-cognitive branding) that convinced the buyer they were making a wise investment. • Millais could be trusted as he was a born artist, an honest Englishman and made an ARA in 1853 and later RA (and President just before he died). • Hunt could be trusted as an investment as he was serious, had religious convictions and worked hard at everything he did. • Rossetti was a typical unreliable Romantic image of the artist so buying one of his paintings was a wise investment as you were buying the work of a ‘real artist’. 2 • The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) had only seven members but influenced many other artists. • Those most closely associated with the PRB were Ford Madox Brown (who was seven years older), Elizabeth Siddal (who died in 1862) and Walter Deverell (who died in 1854). • Edward Burne-Jones and William Morris were about five years younger. They met at Oxford and were influenced by Rossetti. I will discuss them more fully when I cover the Arts & Crafts Movement. • There were many other artists influenced by the PRB including, • John Brett, who was influenced by John Ruskin, • Arthur Hughes, a successful artist best known for April Love, • Henry Wallis, an artist who is best known for The Death of Chatterton (1856) and The Stonebreaker (1858), • William Dyce, who influenced the Pre-Raphaelites and whose Pegwell Bay is untypical but the most Pre-Raphaelite in style of his works.
