Quotation on the frame:
Allor diceva Amor: "Più non ti celo; / Vieni a veder nostra donna che giace" / L'immaginar fallace. // Mi condusse a veder mia donna morta; / E quando l'avea scorta, / Vedea che donne la covrian d'un velo; // Ed avea seco umiltà si verace, / Che parea che dicesse: Io sono in pace. / Dante: La Vita Nuova
Notes This is Rossetti's largest ever painting.
The attendants were modelled by Marie Spartali Stillman (right), and Alexa Wilding (left); Beatrice was modelled by Jane Morris; the face of Love was modelled by Johnston Forbes-Robertson and Dante's face corresponde to William James Stillman.

Licensing[edit]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1882, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
