William Michael Rossetti

著者について

William Michael Rossetti was an English poet, critic, and editor, known for his involvement with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group of English artists and writers who sought to reform art by returning to the detail, intense colors, and complex compositions of pre-Renaissance painting. Born in London in 1829, he was the brother of the famous painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti and was heavily influenced by his artistic environment. Rossetti's literary contributions included editing the works of his contemporaries and producing poetry that often reflected the themes and aesthetics of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. His most notable works include critical memoirs and essays that provided insight into the art and literature of his time.
