John William Waterhouse of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood Part 5: Miscellaneous
Well, this one is just to stuff the seven that I forgot to rate. Ok, the first one is a study for the rosebuds painting. You can see the idea starting to take shape. We have yet to see the stained glass window. Originally, the maiden was going to have the flowers like a bouquet. I guess the basin worked better. In any case, this painting of Waterhouse deserves 5 star rating.
Impressionistic Romanticist flower scenery |
This painting is called "Lilies, Poppies and Carnations Study" .Well, its a simple painting of nature. Nothing too far out there. Its pretty nice with the varied brushstrokes and its impressionistic feel. In any case, Waterhouse deserves 5 stars.
Young St. Joan in Grace |
Well, the above painting is called "St.Joan" (or St. Joan of Arc). She is one of three saints depicted by "Waterhouse. She looks very beautiful as shown above. Her gaze is toward the heaven. The model chosen for St. Joan is extremely pretty. Her big eyes are on big piece of work. In any case, this lovely painting deserves 5 star rating.
This one is a Study for the Bouquet. Originally, he wanted to set the Bouquet scene in the forest. For being a study, its pretty well defined. In any case, this one deserves 5 star rating.
Reproduction of a Waterhouse painting |
This one is called "The Love Philtre". This painting is in black and white because its location is unknown. All we have to work with is a black and white reproduction in a book. Still, we do get a good feel about the painting. Here this maiden is pouring a potion into a cup. The scenery is not half bad. 5 stars.
Maiden among roses |
This one is called "The Rose Bower". Eh, its simple enough. Real loose brushstrokes. A maiden among roses. 5 stars.
Vain girl looking at her reflection in a mirror |
This one is the last one for sure. Its called Vanity. Basically, a maiden with a flower on her hair is looking at her reflection in the mirror. Next to her there are all objects of Vanity. There is a pearl necklace and other things. Its really pretty. In any case, this one deserves 5 stars. Well, we are officially done with John William Waterhouse. Goodnight!!
