{"product_id":"dantis-amor-dante-gabriel-rossetti","title":"Dantis Amor - Dante Gabriel Rossetti","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn allegorical pen and ink drawing by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, depicting the union of love and the cosmos inspired by Dante Alighieri.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDantis Amor is a pen and ink drawing by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, created between 1859 and 1860. The composition serves as an allegorical representation of the final line of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy: The love that moves the sun and the other stars. Rossetti, a founder of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, maintained a lifelong fascination with the Italian poet, often drawing upon his verses for thematic inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe image features a central figure of Love, depicted as a winged youth holding a sundial. The figure stands at the intersection of two distinct realms. To the left, the sun radiates light, accompanied by the profile of a bearded man representing the divine. To the right, a crescent moon cradles a profile of Beatrice, the muse of Dante. The contrast between the light and dark sections of the background creates a clear division between the celestial and the earthly. The inclusion of Latin and Italian inscriptions, integrated into the composition, reinforces the literary nature of the work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRossetti employs fine, precise linework to define the figures and the celestial bodies. The hatching techniques provide texture to the wings and the robes of the central figure. The composition is highly symbolic, moving away from the naturalistic focus of earlier Pre-Raphaelite works toward a more conceptual, visionary style. This piece reflects the artist's preoccupation with the intersection of romantic devotion and spiritual transcendence. It remains a significant example of his graphic output, demonstrating his ability to translate complex literary concepts into visual form through a disciplined use of line and shadow.\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=\"\/fr\/products\/frontispiece-for-america-a-prophecy-william-blake\" 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;\"\u003eFrontispiece for America a Prophecy by William Blake\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/products\/alone-edmund-dulac\" 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;\"\u003eAlone by Edmund Dulac\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/fr\/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 \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59516967485775,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59516967518543,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59516967551311,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59516967584079,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59516967616847,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59516967649615,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59516967682383,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59516967715151,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59516967747919,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59516967780687,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59516967813455,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59516967846223,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Dantis-Amor_Poster_CompositorV1_1794708097674.jpg?v=1794708134","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/fr\/products\/dantis-amor-dante-gabriel-rossetti","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
