The painting that I'll be discussing is 'The Day Dream' (1880) by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, in the Victoria & Albert Museum, London.

One in a series of Gallery Talks on Zoom, called ‘My Favourite Paintings', to concentrate your thoughts on Art History.

Each talk is on one work of art. I share insights, discuss aspects such as the subject matter, historical and social context of the work of art, the life of the artist and the techniques and materials they empIoyed. The talk will last for an hour, with time to answer questions from the chat box.
