(THE LADY OF SHALOTT, JOHN WILLIAM WATERHOUSE, CREATED IN 1888, PRESENTED BY SIR HENRY TATE IN 1894)
"The Lady of Shalott," an oil-on-canvas painting, depicts a scene from Tennyson's poem in which the poet describes the plight of a young woman, who possessed an unrequited love for a knight. Waterhouse's reeds lose some of their illusionism and dissolve into brushstrokes. Jewel tones were replaced for the atmospheric silvers and greens of a cool English day. Like the Lady herself, the selection turns away from an art of isolated life and towards a piece that engages with visual effects.
