Christina Rossetti, the author of “Goblin Market,” was born in London on December 5th, 1830. She followed the footsteps of the father Gabriele who was a poet and Dante Rossetti, her father who was also a painter and author. She had easy access to printing her works because her grandfather owned a printing press. Her best work was the “Goblin Market,” I have included it into my theme because the poem shows the love sisters have towards each other also because she is a great option from the Victorian period.  

This image is a portrait of Christina done by her brother Dante
