"The exiled Italian poet Gabriele Rossetti bequeathed his new home town with a remarkable cultural legacy through the accomplishments of his children. Painters, poets, scholars, and a nun, they shaped the artistic, literary, and spiritual communities that had first inspired them—the Pre-Raphaelites, Anglo-Catholics, Freemasons, and suffragists of nineteenth-century London." - Amazon.
