Dante Gabriel Rossetti was an English painter and poet who came from a remarkable and talented family: his father was an exiled Italian patriot, his sister the poet Christina Rossetti, and his brother the critic William Michael Rossetti. Growing up in modest circumstances but a strongly literary environment, he at first found it hard to decide whether he should devote himself to poetry or painting.
