請回答第 49 題至第 50 題:The sultry figure combs her golden hair and gazes at a mirror; her dressing gown has slipped off one shoulder. In asonnet inscribed on the painting’s elaborate gold frame, the artist, a London poet and painter named Dante GabrielRossetti, identified his subject as Lilith, Adam’s first wife—“the witch he loved before the gift of Eve.” Adding a hint ofmenace, Rossetti garnished the scene with poisonous foxglove and an opium poppy (whose narcotic, it was widelyknown, had killed his own wife a few years before). Rossetti filled the background of the picture with sprays of whiteroses. With characteristic thoroughness, he had procured a huge basket of fresh-cut roses from which to work. And notjust any roses, but those gathered from the personal garden of England’s most influential art critic, John Ruskin. If youcould curry favor with the critics by painting their flowers, why not, Rossetti must have thought. Lady Lilith is thecenterpiece of an exhibition called “Waking Dreams: The Art of the Pre-Raphaelites from the Delaware Art Museum.”Widely if not universally praised in its time, disdained as mawkish and heavy-handed throughout much of the 20thcentury, the Pre-Raphaelites’ emotionally charged art is today enjoying a renaissance of its own.
