by Gale Pedrick
This was Dante Gabriel Rossetti 's own description of Henry Treffry Dunn , the Cornish artist.
Gale Pedrick tells how his great-uncle, Treffry Dunn , shared-and ran -Rossetti's eccentric household in Cheyne Walk, Chelsea; hired-and frequently fired-the auburn-haired housemaid-models; painted replicas of his friend's most famous pictures; and became the confidant of the artist-poet who called him ' the best of fellows and my guardian angel.'
Recording of the broadcast on October 13, 1960
