Porsephine
Artist: Dante Gabriel Rossetti (English, 1828-1882)
Date: 1874
Medium: Oil on canvas
Collection: Tate Britain, London, United Kingdom
Description
In the classical myth Proserpine was kidnapped by Pluto, the god of the underworld, to be his wife. Eating food from the underworld would cause a living person to stay there forever. Proserpine ate six pomegranate seeds, and so Pluto confined her to his kingdom six months of each year. She is shown here eating a pomegranate which symbolises captivity. Jane Morris (née Burden) modelled for Proserpine. She was an embroiderer and artist’s model who was married to Rossetti’s friend William Morris and was also Rossetti’s lover.
