Season 1, Episode 1663, Apr 12, 2023, 09:00 AM
The Rossettis is a new exhibition at Tate Britain devoted to the Rossetti generation; Dante Gabriel, Christina and Elizabeth (née Siddal) following their romance and radicalism through and beyond the Pre-Raphaelite years to their influence on art and design today.
This is the first retrospective of Dante Gabriel Rossetti at Tate and the largest exhibition of his iconic pictures in two decades, and the most comprehensive exhibition of Elizabeth Siddal’s work for 30 years, featuring rare surviving watercolours and important drawings.
