Until 24th September 2023, Tate Britain is hosting an exhibition about the radical Rossetti family, focusing on their attitudes to art, love and lifestyles. Arguably, Dante Gabriel Rosetti is the most famous of the siblings, and his paintings make The Rossettis a remarkable exhibition.

Thinking, as I find myself doing a lot these days, about Rossetti's Annunciation ('Ecce Ancilla Domini'). It captures something that most other annucation depictions don't - the quiet, pale look of a teenage girl being told she'll carry her own God inside her. The look isn't one of ecstatic worship at the sight of an angel, nor is it even one of suprise and shock at the event. It is a weary, dogged acceptance of her fate. I keep thinking, too, about Christina Rossetti posing for her brother for this portrait - isolated, young Christina who had a nervous breakdown at fourteen and suffered from severe bouts of depression and illness afterwards, clinging to her devout faith as a raft. The same year she sat for this, she became seriously ill, and was also involved with a man who she would never marry, for religious reasons. I wonder what Christina thought about the young Mary. I wonder if there was kinship there.
