6 April - 23 September 2023
The Maas Gallery has lent Elizabeth Siddal's The Lady of Shallot (1853) and Dante Gabriel Rossetti's chalk Jane Morris (1868) to the Tate's exhibition of The Rossettis (6 April - 23 September 2023).
This major exhibition follows the romance and radicalism of the Rossetti generation, through and beyond the Pre-Raphaelite years: Dante Gabriel, Christina and Elizabeth (née Siddal). Visitors will get to experience world-renowned works from their boundary-pushing careers. The Rossettis’ approach to art, love and lifestyles are considered revolutionary, and this will be thoroughly explored in an immersive show, using spoken poetry, drawings, paintings, photography, design and more. This is the first retrospective of Dante Gabriel Rossetti at Tate and the largest exhibition of his iconic pictures in two decades. It will also be the most comprehensive exhibition of Elizabeth Siddal’s work for 30 years, featuring rare surviving watercolours and important drawings. Curated by Carol Jacobi, this exhibition will tour to Delaware Art Museum in October 2023, where it will be open to the public until Janurary 2024.
