Descripción
A masterpiece of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, this painting depicts a bride unveiling herself, inspired by the Song of Solomon.
Painted between 1865 and 1866, The Beloved is a central work in the career of Dante Gabriel Rossetti. The composition illustrates a scene from the Song of Solomon, focusing on the bride as she unveils herself to her groom. The central figure, dressed in a green robe with floral patterns, is surrounded by four attendants and a young page holding a golden vessel of roses. The painting demonstrates the artist's shift toward aestheticism, prioritising colour and decorative form over the strict moral narratives of his earlier Pre-Raphaelite works.
Rossetti drew inspiration from various sources, including Venetian art and Japanese prints, which influenced the flattened perspective and the arrangement of figures. The model for the bride was Marie Ford, while the other figures were based on various acquaintances of the artist. The inclusion of the young black page reflects a fascination with exoticism and contrast, a common trope in Victorian art of the period. The painting is noted for its attention to detail, particularly in the jewellery, the textures of the fabrics, and the botanical elements. The roses in the foreground provide a soft contrast to the heavy, draped garments and the ornate headpiece worn by the bride.
This work remains a primary example of Rossetti's mature style, where the focus is on the sensuality of the subject and the harmony of the composition. The tight grouping of the figures creates a sense of intimacy, drawing the viewer into the moment of revelation. The use of light and shadow across the faces of the attendants adds depth to the otherwise compressed space. It is a study in beauty and ornamentation, reflecting the artist's personal aesthetic preferences during the mid-1860s.

Artist Biography
Dante Gabriel Rossetti
Rossetti was the engine of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. He co-founded it in 1848 with Holman Hunt and John Everett Millais, writing the manifesto, recruiting members, and generating the intensity that held the group together. He was nineteen. The name was deliberately provocative: they wanted to reject everything after Raphael, which was most of Western art.
He was born in London to an Italian political exile and named after the author of the Divine Comedy. His father was a professor of Italian at King's College. The household ran on poetry, politics, and argument. Rossetti wrote verse throughout his life and considered himself a poet as much as a painter.
His early paintings are small, bright, and meticulously detailed in the Pre-Raphaelite manner. The Girlhood of Mary Virgin and Ecce Ancilla Domini have the flat, jewelled quality of medieval altarpieces. After 1860 the style changed. The paintings became larger, more sensual, and dominated by the face and figure of Jane Burden, who was William Morris's wife.
The relationship between Rossetti, Morris, and Jane is one of the more uncomfortable triangles in art history. Morris married her. Rossetti painted her obsessively. She modelled for Proserpine, La Pia de' Tolomei, and dozens of other works in which she appears as a mythological woman trapped in an unwanted situation. Whether the affair was physical remains debated. Morris, characteristically, said nothing publicly and channelled his feelings into wallpaper.
Rossetti buried a manuscript of his poems in his wife Lizzie Siddal's coffin when she died of a laudanum overdose in 1862. Seven years later he had the coffin exhumed to retrieve them. He published the poems. He was addicted to chloral hydrate by then and increasingly paranoid. He died in 1882, at fifty-three.
