Abstract

One of Dante Gabriel Rossetti's most typical forms of artistic expression was certainly the 'double work of art'. In this specific area it is possible to find numerous hints of Laurence Sterne's influence on Rossetti's works. As in "Tristram Shandy", the relation between images and words becomes a way to enter, albeit with different aims, the very process of creation.
