The sitter for this photograph was Marie Spartali (1843–1927), an artist
who had close associations with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood of artists.
She was also the model for paintings by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Edward
Burne-Jones and Ford Madox Brown. Spartali studied art with Rossetti and
Brown, exhibiting her own paintings in London in 1867 and 1873.
