"The Blessed Damozel" is a poem by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, first published in 1850 and later revised several times. Rossetti, an English poet, illustrator, painter, and translator, was one of the founding members of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group of English painters, poets, and critics that aimed to reform art by rejecting what they considered the mechanistic approach first adopted by Mannerist artists who succeeded Raphael and Michelangelo. The poem is one of Rossetti's most famous works and reflects the Pre-Raphaelite interest in medieval themes and spiritualism.

The poem explores the theme of romantic love beyond the grave, depicting a heavenly damozel (an archaic form of "damsel") who yearns for her lover still on Earth. The damozel, who is blessed in heaven, looks down upon her lover and dreams of their reunion in the afterlife. The poem is notable for its rich imagery and the way it combines the sensual with the sacred, a characteristic of much of Rossetti's work.

"The Blessed Damozel" inspired Rossetti to create several works of art, including a painting of the same name which he completed in 1879. The painting, like the poem, is a testament to Rossetti's fascination with the idea of love transcending the physical boundaries of life and death. The poem's influence extended beyond Rossetti's own work, impacting the wider Pre-Raphaelite movement and the aesthetic of Victorian poetry and art.

Rossetti's poem consists of stanzas that follow an irregular rhyme scheme and is written in a lyrical and evocative language that captures the longing and ethereal beauty of the damozel. "The Blessed Damozel" remains a significant work in the study of 19th-century English literature and Pre-Raphaelite art, reflecting the movement's ideals and its contribution to the wider cultural landscape of the period.
