Medusa Eyes Media is a network of websites focused on the appreciation of Pre-Raphaelite art.
Pre-Raphaelite Sisterhood This blog focuses on the women immortalized on canvas by The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, as well as other late Victorian artists who embraced the Pre-Raphaelite or Symbolist style.
LizzieSiddal.com: Discuss the life of Elizabeth Siddal Rossetti (1829-1862). Lizzie was an artist’s model and appears in some of the most famous Pre-Raphaelite works. Not content to be merely a model, she boldly embarked on an art career of her own (in an age when such boldness in women was frowned upon). She later married PRB founder Dante Gabriel Rossetti. She died of an overdose of Laudanum. Several years after her death, Rossetti had her body exhumed in order to retrieve the manuscript of his poems that he had buried with her.
LizzieSiddal.com highlight: It was an honor for me to be able to interview Lucinda Hawksley, author of Lizzie Siddal: Face of the Pre-Raphaelites.
