A study of portraiture in poetry and the visual arts from the 1860's through early modernism, focusing on the impact of the Rossetti circle on T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, Amy Lowell, and other American poets. In close readings of poems and paintings, Dickey examines the continuities between Aestheticism and modernism.
