The meeting of Dante and Beatrice in a street in Florence,


The meeting of Dante and Beatrice in a street in Florence, shown here as a sketch for the 1863 watercolour. A copy of this ended up in the Red House and may well be the reason why Beatrice looks like Jane Morris rather than Lizzie Siddal.
