Elizabeth Siddal(1829-1862) was born on July 25, 1829, in Holborn, London, to Charles
Crooke Siddall and Elizabeth Elenor Evans Siddall. Blessed with extraordinary
beauty she caught the eye of a pre-Raphaelite painter, Walter Howell Deverell,
as she worked in a bonnet store in Cranbourne Alley, London. In time, she
modelled for Deverell, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Everett Millais, and William
Holman Hunt. She became Rossetti's mistress, and by 1852 began painting for herself and won the financial support of John Ruskin. Illness then struck, leading her to stop painting, and her engagement with Rossetti fell away in 1858.
