     The magnificent painting Sibylla Palmifera demonstrates the connections artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti often made between his paintings and his poetry. One of the sonnets from the House of Life reveals the subject of Sibylla Palmifera (or "Soul's Beauty"): This is that Lady Beauty, in whose praiseThy voice and hand shake still, - long known to theeBy flying hair and fluttering hem, - the beatFollowing her daily of thy heart and feet,How passionately and irretrievably,In what fond flight, how many ways and days! The painting features a great deal of symbolic detail. The woman holds a palm, which suggests victory - some sources state that Rossetti meant to represent the victory of the soul over death. Indeed, other symbols in the work seem to reinforce this interpretation. The butterflies that hover in the background are symbols of the soul, and the poppies that appear in the upper right corner are often used to symbolize sleep or death in art. Sibylla Palmifera is also an example of one of Rossetti's primary artistic obsessions - depicting the beautiful woman that so haunted his imagination. In this image, the artist's model was the 'stunner' Alexa Wilding. In addition to Sibylla Palmifera, the lovely Alexa Wilding appears in several of Rossetti's other works, including his Lady Lilith, La Sidonia von Bork" by Edward Burne-Jones, 1860 (Tate Gallery London).           

 

                   

 SOUL'S  BEUATY

[SIBYLLA  PALMIFERA]

Under the arch of Life, where love and death,

Terror and mystery, guard her shrine, I saw

Beauty enthroned; and though her gaze struck awe,

I drew it in as simply as my breath.

The sky and sea bend on thee, - which can draw,

By sea or sky or woman, to one law,

The allotted bondman of her palm and wreath.

 

This is that Lady Beauty, in whose praise

Thy voice and hand shake still, - long known to thee

By flying hair and fluttering them, - the beat

Following her daily of thy heart and feet,

How passionately and irretrievably,

In what fond flight, how many ways and days!
