Career
After studying at King's College School, Henry Sass's Drawing Academy and the Royal Academy, Rossetti co-founded the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood alongside John Edward Millais and William Holman Hunt. The Brotherhood aimed to present realism in all its detail and color through art, as depicted in many of Rossetti's paintings, like Ecce Ancilla Domini and Beata Beatrix.As a poet, he wrote much of his work in a journal, which he buried with his late wife, Elizabeth, in 1862. The journal was later exhumed and published as Poems by D.G. Rossetti in 1870. The erotic nature of the work was heavily criticized, sending Rossetti into a depression marred by an addiction to chloral. He died in 1882.
