As a teenager, Dante Gabriel Rossetti pursued his artistic training at two primary institutions in London:
- Sassās: When he was approximately 14 years old, Rossetti attended this old-fashioned drawing school located in Bloomsbury.1
- Royal Academy schools: In 1845, he advanced to these schools, where he became a full student.1
Additionally, he later spent a short period as an informal pupil of the painter Ford Madox Brown.1
