Looking for Lizzie
Millions know the face, framed with long russet hair, but few can name her. She's part icon, part legend, part historical curiosity. She is Elizabeth Siddal , model for the pre-Raphaelites, wife of Dante Gabriel Rossetti and an artist and poet in her own right. Jan Marsh wrote her biography and discovered a woman who has mirrored the preoccupations of generations while remaining herself in obscurity.
