{"product_id":"beata-beatrix-dante-gabriel-rossetti","title":"Beata Beatrix - Dante Gabriel Rossetti","description":"\u003cp\u003eDante Gabriel Rossetti's *Beata Beatrix* portrays Elizabeth Siddal as Dante's Beatrice at the moment of death, rendered with symbolic elements and a dreamlike atmosphere characteristic of the Pre-Raphaelite movement.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDante Gabriel Rossetti's *Beata Beatrix* is a symbolic portrait of Elizabeth Siddal, Rossetti's wife, painted several years after her death in 1862. The painting depicts Siddal as Beatrice from Dante Alighieri's *La Vita Nuova*, at the moment of her death. Rossetti used Jane Morris as a model for the face, striving to capture Siddal's likeness from memory and earlier sketches. Beatrice is shown in a state of spiritual ecstasy, her eyes closed and lips parted, as if in a trance. A halo-like light surrounds her head. Her clasped hands hold a sundial, symbolising the passage of time, while a red dove, representing the Holy Spirit, delivers a white poppy, a symbol of opium and death. In the background, figures representing Dante and Love stand watch. The hazy, dreamlike atmosphere and the symbolic elements contribute to the painting's overall sense of melancholy and spiritual yearning. Rossetti worked on the painting from around 1864 to 1870, creating a work that is both a personal tribute and a meditation on love, loss, and the afterlife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-car-of-love-edward-burne-jones\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Car of Love - Edward Burne-Jones — Edward Burne-Jones\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/dante-gabriel-rossetti\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMore by Dante Gabriel Rossetti →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Dante Gabriel Rossetti","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57185827520847,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57185837711695,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57185837744463,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57185837777231,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57185837809999,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57185837842767,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57185837875535,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57185837908303,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57185837941071,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57185837973839,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57185838006607,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57185838039375,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57185838072143,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57185838104911,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57185838137679,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57185838170447,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57185838203215,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":57185838235983,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":57185838268751,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":57185838301519,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/file_cd7139af-27a5-406f-9413-7464c86634e4.jpg?v=1777152181","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/beata-beatrix-dante-gabriel-rossetti","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
