- Biography
- Dante Gabriel Rossetti was a British painter and poet of Italian descent. Born on May 12, 1828 he left the Royal Academy of Art to become an apprentice to Ford Madox Brown. In 1845 he translated works by Dante and his predecessors which was published in 1861 as "The Early Italian Poets." He started writing poems in 1847 but relied on his painting to earn his living throughout his life. In 1848 Rossetti joined with six other artists to form the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
