'Rossetti is a hugely enjoyable, readable and informative account of both the life and art of one of the Victorian period's major artists, and is a magnificent achievement on the part of J.B. Bullen... If it is not quite a catalogue raisonee of absolutely every work Rossetti drew or painted, it is the next best thing. The chronological presentation of Rossetti's art interwoven with an account of his life has never been done before so extensively or so well. By the end you will understand both differently.'
Although the book devotes much attention to biographical narrative, its real originality lies not in the treatment of the life, but in the account of the transmutation of the life into art
Of particular interest to those interested in 19th century British art and literature....highly recommended.

A lucid, compelling and elegant account of the life of one of our great artists, encased in a beautiful silky-paged volume stuffed with luxuriant colour reproductions. A must for any art lover.
||Bullen writes attractively and accessibly and draws on a copious knowledge of the art and literatire of the period as well as the socialm moral and religious debates that informed the contemporary reactions to his work. The book is well designed and fully illustrated.
||Bullen is a remarkably good writer.
||It is clear from the tone of Bullen's text how much he admires his subject.
||In his handsome, profusely illustrated book, J.B. Bullen gives Rossetti's poetry as much attention as his pictures and, in his work as well as his life, finds erotic obsession and a debilitating struggle to reconcile sensual with spiritual passion.
