Dante Gabriel Rossetti, 1865
For now, just to look at
The photograph we have of this work is not sharp enough to print at the quality we want, so we are not selling it for now. We are looking for a better one.

What the museum label doesn't tell you
Before it was exhibited, Rossetti substantially reworked the painting in 1873, altering its tone and 'idealising' the faces and hands; a photograph of the original, unaltered version survives.
