{"title":"Stillman, Marie Spartali","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMarie Stillman, née Spartali (1844-1927),\u003c\/strong\u003e was a British painter of Greek descent. A member of the second generation of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, she is regarded as the greatest female artist of that movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf the Pre-Raphaelites, she had one of the longest-running careers, spanning sixty years and producing over one hundred and fifty works, including Love's Messenger and numerous romantic scenes from the Divine Comedy. Though her work with the Brotherhood began as a favourite model, she soon trained and became a respected painter, earning praise from Dante Gabriel Rossetti and others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarie Spartali was the eldest child of Michael Spartali, a wealthy merchant, and Euphrosyne Varsini. The family split time between their home at Clapham Common in London and their country home on the Isle of Wight. In the city, Spartali's father was fond of lavish garden parties where he invited up and coming writers and artists. It was at one such event where Marie would first be introduced to the art world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1870, Spartali met American journalist and painter William J. Stillman. The couple had previously posed for Rossetti in his famous Dante pictures, though it is not certain if that is how they first met. Interestingly, although her husband was an artist himself, Marie never sat for him as a model. The pair married in 1871 against her father's wishes, causing a rift that would never fully heal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs her husband was a foreign correspondent for The Times, the couple divided their time between London and Florence (1878-83), and later Rome (1889-96).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe couple had three children of their own who were raised alongside William's other three children from a previous marriage. Marie Stillman died in March 1927 in Ashburn Place in South Kensington, four days shy of her 83rd birthday, and was cremated at Brookwood Cemetery, near Woking, Surrey. She is interred there with her husband.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"stillman-marie-spartali-1844-1927-by-the-fountain-1883","title":"Stillman, Marie Spartali (1844-1927) - By the Fountain 1883","description":"\u003cp\u003eArtwork by Pre-Raphaelite woman artist, Marie Spartali Stillman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis download consists of 1 image, in JPEG format, that is 600dpi and 4430 pixels wide by 5070 pixels tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe picture is out of copyright and in the public domain, so you are free to use it in whatever way you'd like, including commercial use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead more about \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/publicdomainimagelibrary.com\/collections\/stillman-marie-spartali\" title=\"Marie Spartali Stillman\"\u003eMarie Spartali Stillman\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 1 image","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50752751239498,"sku":null,"price":0.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/Stillman_MarieSpartali_1844-1927_-BytheFountain1883_main.jpg?v=1747051985"},{"product_id":"tillman-marie-spartali-1844-1927-loves-messenger-1885","title":"Stillman, Marie Spartali (1844-1927) - Love's Messenger 1885","description":"\u003cp\u003eArtwork by Pre-Raphaelite woman artist, Marie Spartali Stillman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis download consists of 1 image, in JPEG format, that is 300dpi and 4374 pixels wide by 5425 pixels tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe picture is out of copyright and in the public domain, so you are free to use it in whatever way you'd like, including commercial use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead more about \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/publicdomainimagelibrary.com\/collections\/stillman-marie-spartali\" title=\"Marie Spartali Stillman\"\u003eMarie Spartali Stillman\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 1 image","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50752841089354,"sku":null,"price":0.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/Stillman_MarieSpartali_1844-1927_-Love_sMessenger1885_main.jpg?v=1747051984"},{"product_id":"stillman-marie-spartali-1844-1927-messer-ansaldo-showing-his-enchanted-garden-1889","title":"Stillman, Marie Spartali (1844-1927) - Messer Ansaldo showing his Enchanted Garden 1889","description":"\u003cp\u003eArtwork by woman Pre-Raphaelite artist, Marie Spartali Stillman.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis download consists of 1 image, in JPEG format, that is 600dpi and 5436 pixels wide by 4188 pixels tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe picture is out of copyright and in the public domain, so you are free to use it in whatever way you'd like, including commercial use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead more about \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/publicdomainimagelibrary.com\/collections\/stillman-marie-spartali\" title=\"Marie Spartali Stillman\"\u003eMarie Spartali Stillman\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 1 image","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50752859308362,"sku":null,"price":0.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/Stillman_MarieSpartali_1844-1927_-MesserAnsaldoshowinghisEnchantedGarden_main.jpg?v=1747051983"},{"product_id":"stillman-marie-spartali-1844-1927-madonna-pietra-degli-scrovigni-1884","title":"Stillman, Marie Spartali (1844-1927) - Madonna Pietra degli Scrovigni 1884","description":"\u003cp\u003eMadonna Pietra Degli Scrovigni (My Lady Stone) is a character from a poem by the Italian poet Dante Alighieri (1265-1321).
