Beata Beatrix by Dante Gabriel Rossetti

Beata Beatrix (1870)

Dante Gabriel Rossetti | Pre-Raphaelite | Oil on canvas

A red-haired woman, shown as Beatrice from a poem by Dante, seems to be in a dream or trance, her eyes closed and face peaceful. A red dove brings her a white poppy.

Did you know? Rossetti painted this in memory of his wife, Elizabeth Siddal, who died in 1862, and based Beatrice's face on his many drawings of her. Siddal was an artist and poet too: in 1857 she was the only woman to show work at a Pre-Raphaelite exhibition.
