"Study of Marie Spartali for Dante's Dream" is a preparatory drawing by the renowned Pre-Raphaelite artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Created in the late 19th century, this work serves as a study for Rossetti's larger and more famous painting, "Dante's Dream at the Time of the Death of Beatrice." The drawing features Marie Spartali Stillman, a prominent artist and model within the Pre-Raphaelite circle, who was known for her striking beauty and artistic talent.

Rossetti's "Dante's Dream" is inspired by Dante Alighieri's "La Vita Nuova," a text that explores the poet's idealized love for Beatrice Portinari. The preparatory study captures the ethereal and melancholic essence that Rossetti sought to convey in the final painting. In the drawing, Marie Spartali is depicted with delicate, flowing lines that emphasize her serene and contemplative expression, embodying the idealized feminine beauty that was central to Pre-Raphaelite aesthetics.

The study is notable not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. Marie Spartali Stillman was one of the few women who were both muses and accomplished artists within the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group that included figures such as William Holman Hunt, John Everett Millais, and Rossetti himself. Her collaboration with Rossetti highlights the interconnectedness of the artists within this movement and their shared commitment to reviving the detail, color, and complexity of early Renaissance art.

"Study of Marie Spartali for Dante's Dream" exemplifies Rossetti's skill in capturing both physical likeness and emotional depth. The drawing remains an important piece for understanding the preparatory processes of Pre-Raphaelite artists and offers insight into the collaborative and often symbiotic relationships between artists and their muses during this period.
