Dante Gabriel Rossetti is a famous English painter and poet in the 19th century.His change in painting style is remarkable,from austere Medievalism in the early period to volumptuous Venetian style in the late years.Appearantly,it seems that the artist leaves stoicism for Epicureanism.Hence he is criticized for this reason.By analyzing his paintings,the painting styles and reasons that cause the styles,the thesis tries to reveal the virtual feature of this outstanding artist's creation.Study shows that the pursuit of spiritual and substantial love and beauty is the motive and main theme in Rossetti's creative works.And this aethetic ideal is prologued throughout his life and artistic career.
