'This mesmerising biography gives life to an icon, and reads as grippingly as any rags-to-riches novel.' - The Mail on Sunday 'The life behind the model for Millais's Ophelia...The first supermodel, Siddal remains a fascinating figure.' - Tatler 'A seductive biography. The story as it gains in tragedy is irresistible' - The Sunday Times 'It is the stuff of opera' - Sunday Telegraph
Reseña del editor:Saved from the drudgery of a working-class existence by a young Pre-Raphaelite artist, Lizzie Siddal rose to become one of the most famous faces in Victorian Britain and a pivotal figure of London's artistic world, until tragically ending her young life in a laudanum-soaked suicide in 1862. In the twenty-first century, even those who do not know her name always recognise her face: she is Millais' doomed Ophelia and Rossetti's beatified Beatrice. With many parallels in the modern-day world of art and fashion, this biography takes Lizzie from the background of Dante Rossetti's life and, finally, brings her to the forefront of her own.
