1849 -1864 · Annunciation, Virgin, Magdalene and chivalry
Rossetti's first works bring the Bible and the Middle Ages closer together: bare interiors, bold colors and human gestures make the sacred as immediate as a lived scene.
Dante Gabriel Rossetti began his career with religious and medieval subjects which defined the ambition of the Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood. The Childhood of the Virgin Mary, exhibited in 1849, shows Mary working on embroidery under the gaze of Saint Anne. The objects - lilies, vines, books, fabric - announce her destiny while belonging to a credible domestic workshop. Ecce Ancilla Domini!, painted the following year, radicalizes the Annunciation: Mary stands up on a white bed, Gabriel presents the lily to her, and the narrow space eliminates any reborn pomp. Marie stands up on a white bed, Gabriel presents the lily to her, and the narrow space eliminates any reborn pomp. Marie Madeleine at the door of Simon the Pharisee opposes conversion to the worldly world that the young woman abandons; gesture, look and porte condenses the decision. Arthurian legends offer a second domain. The Quest for the Holy Grail and Sir Galahad at the ruined chapel combine chivalry, fragmentary architecture and spirituality. Rossetti often works in watercolor, in small formats with intense colors close to illumination. His Middle Ages are not archaeologically neutral: it is used to imagine a society where art, faith and love would still be united. This vision will nourish William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones, while preparing aesthetics. This vision will nourish William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones, while preparing aesthetics. The selection "Religious and medieval works of Dante Gabriel Rossetti" notably compares Ecce Ancilla Domini!, known as The Annunciation and The Childhood of the Virgin Mary. His reading favors movement.
Rossetti brings the Middle Ages near not by perfect reconstruction, but by giving sacred gestures the tension of a present experience.
