I’m struggling so hard to not draw more of these. And if I keep going, I better make a proper short origin comic or something.

Traditional Chinese 团扇Tuanshan( round fan) by 春晼晚. [tuán shàn gē] 团扇歌( song of tuanshan) ——班婕妤Ban Jieyu(b.c.48-2) 新裂齐纨素，鲜洁如霜雪。裁为合欢扇，团圆似明月。出入君怀袖，动摇微风发。常恐秋节至，凉飚夺炎热。弃捐箧笥中，恩情中道绝。

Detail of Ophelia, 1851, by John Everett Millais (1829-1896).

Yes the painting has quite the history behind it! While posing for the work, Elizabeth lay floating in a bath of water, with oil lamps underneath the bath for some heating. However, Rossetti was too focused on his work to notice that the oil lamps had gone out, and Siddal never complained about the water getting colder and colder. She got very ill from this incident and a doctor had to be called on multiple occasions, which Siddal’s father forced Rossetti to pay for.

I touched on her illness briefly in my short post on her, although we don’t absolutely know the exact reason behind her illness, the issues in their marriage would have certainly exacerbated her ill health at the very least.

We can clearly see from her poems how Elizabeth struggled with depression, her failing health, and the tragedy within her life. She was considered by many as just a pretty face past her “prime” and therefore her accomplishments often went unnoticed. She was acutely aware of this, and it more than likely did contribute to her early death, as she struggled with a laudanum addiction as well as losing a child.

She is now getting more and more recognition in her own right within art and poetry, rather than her status as a muse. You can read some of her poetry here. It gives a powerful insight into how she felt.

Orphans of Time Rebecca Bathory

A fashion photographer turned urban explorer has swapped modelling shoots for the allure of abandoned buildings. Rebecca Lillith Bathory, from London, travels around the world documenting haunting spaces such as derelict hospitals, schools and villas. The fine art photographer has been capturing abandoned locations since 2012 and her work has been a big hit on social media, attracting nearly 100,000 dedicated followers across her accounts. But despite the beauty of her images, she refuses to disclose the exact locations of her photographs in order to protect the space for other explorers and avoid tipping off security.
