Maria Francesca Rossetti
Maria Francesca Rossetti (17 February 1827 – 24 November 1876) was an English author. She was the sister of artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti as well as William Michael Rossetti and Christina Georgina Rossetti, who dedicated her 1862 poem ''Goblin Market'' to Maria. She was born in London.
==Literary and religious life==
She was the author of ''The Shadow of Dante: Being an essay towards studying himself, his world, and his pilgrimage.'' (published 1871). She also acted as a governess during the years of family hardship brought on by her father's failing health and tutored a young Lucy Madox Brown, her future sister-in-law.
At the age of 46, Maria joined the Society of All Saints, an Anglican order for women and Lucy Madox Brown wanted to paint her in her habit.〔Marsh, Jan, ''Pre-Raphaelite Sisterhood,'' (London: Quartet, 1985), p. 313.〕 She made an English translation of the Monastic Diurnal for her order, ''The Day Hours and Other Offices as Used by the Sisters of All Saints'', which was used by her order until 1922. She, along with her sister Christina, donated her time to the St Mary Magdalene Home for Fallen Women in Highgate.〔Marsh, Jan, ''Pre-Raphaelite Sisterhood,'' (London: Quartet, 1985), p. 185.〕 She unsuccessfully attempted to convert her agnostic brothers on her death bed.〔Roe, Dinah ''The Rossettis in Wonderland. A Victorian Family History'' (London: Haus Publishing, 2011), pp. 292-293.〕
