Biography
British poet and noted family, the sister of D.G. Rossetti and William Rossetti. Her disillusionment with two broken engagements and an unconsummated love affair with a married man while still in her teens, was reflected in her poetry. Devout to her religion, Rossetti published poetry and Pre-Raphaelite journals which established her reputation at home and abroad. She was also noted for her children's books, earning her recognition as one of the outstanding Victorian poets.
Suffering from Grave's Disease, she died 12/05/1894, London. (Another reference work gives her date of death as 12/29/1894.)
