Ballads and Sonnets.

1 / 2

Ballads and Sonnets.

Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828—1882), his works include Sir Hugh the Heron: A Legendary Tale in Four Parts (1843), Poems (1869), which was published in several editions with slightly different content, Ballads and Sonnets (1882), Ballads and Narrative Poems, and Sonnets and Lyrical Poems (1894). In addition to writing poetry, Rossetti was an important figure in the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the painting associated with that group. Throughout his life he divided his work between his two passions: poetry and art.

First edition thus (the same year as the first); small 8vo (165 x 125 mm); slight age-toning, else fine internally; later full red morocco, elaborately gilt panelled and tooled to boards and spine, gilt dentelles, top edge gilt, others untrimmed, slight rubbing to corners and spine-head, otherwise near-fine.
