Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: very good. First edition. 8vo, 55 pages, violet cloth; dj edgeworn ". in this essay I want to examine only this idea that the young Rossetti, in his work up to 1862 created an idea in our minds which gets between us and Dante, between us and a real idea of the Middle Ages, in fact to find out what sore of a mark Rossetti is making on the state of our minds. For whether we admire or abhor them it seems that his paintings once seen do make a mark which is ineradicable - pp. 10-11."

First Edition
Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First Edition. Hardback. Foxing to end inside covers. Wear and tear to edges of D/J. How many of us have not been fascinated in childhood or later by the strange and intense world of rossetti's water colours? Mrs. Gray analyses the meaning of that world and the notions of Romance and Romantic Love out of which it is created. A detailed compaison between Rossetti's translation of the Vita Nuova and the original not only elucidates Rossetti's approach by comparison with that of Dante, but places the argument on an objective basis. She shows how the shifting idea of Romance has conditioned the course of modern painting and explains its present fundamental dilemma. Illustrations. 55 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
