Christina Rossetti was a prolific English writer and poet born in London in 1830. The youngest sibling of the artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti, she became a significant figure in Victorian literature through her romantic and devotional verse. Despite facing lifelong struggles with depression and physical illness, she dedicated herself to her faith and her literary craft. Her work, which includes famous poems like "Goblin Market" and beloved Christmas carols, remains highly influential. She is commemorated as a saint in the Anglican tradition on 27 April.
