Artwork Details:
- Dante Gabriel Rossetti British, 1867
- Based on the original artwork "Lady Lilith" by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, 1867
- Fascinated by women’s physical allure, Rossetti imagines a legendary femme fatale as a self-absorbed nineteenth-century beauty who combs her hair and seductively exposes her shoulders. Nearby flowers symbolize different kinds of love. In Jewish literature, the enchantress Lilith is described as Adam’s first wife. Her character is underscored by lines from Goethe’s Faust attached by Rossetti to the original frame, “Beware... for she excels all women in the magic of her locks, and when she twines them round a young man’s neck, she will not ever set him free again.” The artist’s mistress, Fanny Cornforth, is the sitter in this watercolor.
Dr. Jen's Description: Mirrors matter, balance matters, vision matters, and apologize for what matters.
July Bean's Description: I can get lost looking at Lady Lilith's contemplative expression. What is she thinking? There's a feel of boredom and something deeper under the surface, as so many of us carry.
I chose the traditionally feminine shades of pink and purple to keep the delicacy of the mystique, and paired with the stark contrast of the bright green phrase. There is a quiet confidence in her eyes that projects the "unapologetically ambitious" persona.
