Hanging the Mistletoe, 1860
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a moment of enchantment and festive anticipation. In this exquisite panel by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, we are transported to a Victorian Christmas scene filled with warmth and tradition. The painting showcases an elegant woman adorned in auburn locks, intricately braided and intertwined with holly leaves and vibrant red berries. Her head is gently tilted as she delicately hangs mistletoe from above, symbolizing love and good fortune during the holiday season. Rossetti's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing life to the rich colors and textures of the artwork. The woman's wristwatch adds a touch of modernity amidst the classical setting, reminding us that time passes even during moments of celebration. As part of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, Rossetti masterfully combines realism with romanticism. The composition exudes an ethereal quality through soft lighting and intricate patterns. It invites viewers into a world where beauty reigns supreme. This painting serves as both decoration for any space it graces and as a reminder of cherished Christmas traditions. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate art enthusiasts today, making it an invaluable addition to The Makins Collection.
