Description: Portrait of Mrs. William Morris The drawing represents the wife of William Morris, Jane Burden, with whom Rossetti was also in love. The remote, melancholy tenor of the image seems to foreshadow their doomed affair. That Rossetti never sold this sheet attests to its personal significance. (see references)
