About the piece
Walter Crane’s 1862 interpretation of Tennyson’s poem captures the Lady of Shalott in her final moments. Draped in luminous white, she provides a stark contrast to the deep, moody greens and browns of the overhanging trees and the murky river, creating a scene of profound atmospheric melancholy and romantic beauty.
