À propos de l'auteur
J W Waterhouse (1849-1917) combined Pre-Raphaelite intensity with an assured freedom in the handling of paint to create many of the best-loved and most famous of all Victorian images. Turning to classical myth and medieval legend for inspiration, he combined perfect composition and brilliant colour with consummate skill in depicting the female figure and in creating a mysterious and romantic atmosphere.
