Notes |
Models: Frances Polidori Rossetti sat for St. Anne. Christina Rossetti sat for the Virgin. Old Williams, employed by the Rossetti family, sat for St. Joachim. Gabriel made a study, from a girl whom Collinson recommended to him, for the head of the angel. This was done in August 1849, when DGR was repainting parts of the picture. The original angel's face is said to have been modelled on Thomas Woolner's half-sister. Repainting: August 1849: DGR repainted "the dress of the Virgin and the angel's face" before sending the picture to the Dowager Marchioness of Bath, who had purchased it. 1864: The painting was sent to DGR late in 1864 for repainting by its owner at that time, Lady Louisa Fielding. According to Grieve, the picture was reframed at this time, and DGR "altered the angel's wings from white to deep pink and the Virgin's sleeves from yellow to brown". |
