The Lady of Shalott
The Lady of Shalott is a painting by the English painter John William Waterhouse. It is a representation of the ending of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's 1832 poem of the same name. Waterhouse painted three versions of this character, in 1888, 1894 and 1915.
The picture illustrates the following lines from part IV of Tennyson’s ‘The Lady of Shalott’:
And down the river’s dim expanse
Like some bold seer in a trance
Seeing all his own mischance
With glassy countenance
Did she look to Camelot
And at the closing of the day
She loosed the chain, and down she lay
