Original Description
Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s "Regina Cordium: A Portrait of Mrs. Aldam Heaton" (1860) is a mesmerizing example of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood’s devotion to medieval inspiration, lush symbolism, and luminous color. The title, meaning "Queen of Hearts" in Latin, reflects the painting’s romantic idealism—Mrs. Heaton’s poised yet tender gaze is framed by intricate gold detailing and vibrant floral motifs, embodying Rossetti’s signature blend of realism and poetic mysticism. Against a rich, patterned backdrop, her crimson gown and delicate jewelry evoke both regality and intimacy, a hallmark of Rossetti’s later female portraits. Created during his shift toward stylized, jewel-toned aesthetics, this work represents a pivotal moment in 19th-century British art, bridging medieval revivalism and modern portraiture. Its historical significance lies in its contribution to the Pre-Raphaelite legacy, where personal allegory and decorative splendor harmonize.
For interior styling, this painting thrives in spaces that balance drama and sophistication: a dimly lit study with mahogany furniture or a minimalist gallery wall where its gold accents can echo metallic decor. Ideal for medium-sized areas (the original measures 33 × 29 cm), it benefits from a gilded frame to amplify its opulence. Pair it with deep hues like emerald or navy to complement the crimson palette, or offset it with muted neutrals for contrast. In offices, place it near velvet upholstery or brass lighting fixtures to enhance its luxe appeal, ensuring it remains a focal point without overwhelming smaller rooms. Rossetti’s intricate detailing invites close viewing, so hang it at eye level in intimate settings where its emotional depth can resonate.
