"The Blessed Damozel" (1878) by Dante Gabriel Rossetti is a Pre-Raphaelite painting depicting a woman in heaven looking down at a man on Earth, a visual representation of the poem of the same name by the artist. The scene is set in a garden filled with lush foliage and flowers, with a group of angels, including the Damozel, looking down from above. The painting is characterized by its vibrant colors, detailed brushwork, and religious symbolism, and showcases Rossetti's fascination with beauty and spirituality. The work is currently on display at the Fogg Museum (Harvard Art Museums) in Cambridge, MA, US.
