Dante Gabriel Rossetti was a versatile artist who worked as a poet, illustrator, painter, translator, and founder of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. His work inspired future generations of artists and writers and was influential to the European Symbolists and the Aesthetic movement. Rossetti's art was characterized by sensuality and medieval revivalism, and his poetry was influenced by John Keats and William Blake. He often wrote sonnets to accompany his paintings and created art to illustrate poems.
