EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait titled "Vanity, c. 1908-10" artist John William Waterhouse skillfully captures the essence of female beauty and self-admiration.

With an air of confidence and poise, she appears lost in contemplation while admiring herself. Waterhouse's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate details of the necklace to the vibrant hues of the roses that frame the composition. The soft lighting further enhances the ethereal quality of this mesmerizing portrayal. "Vanity" invites viewers to ponder themes such as self-reflection, femininity, and societal expectations surrounding beauty. It serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst fleeting trends and changing standards, there will always be moments when one finds solace in their own reflection.
