The Story of St George - the Return of the PrincessBy Rosa Corder, Dante Gabriel Rossetti 1875 – 1900 Accession number: 1905P205 Watercolour and ink with bodycolour over pencil, laid onto board. Width: 633 mm Height: 502 mm InformationThis work is part of a set of four drawings attributed to Rosa Corder after stained glass windows by Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1904P244). The head of St George is said to have been modelled on Charles Augustus Howell (1840-90), a rather controversial associate of the Pre-Raphaelites. Corder was an associate and mistress of Howell from 1873, she is considered by many to have been a forger of Rossetti drawings.
