is a captivating print that brings to life the essence of Tennyson's poem and the Arthurian legend. Created by John William Waterhouse, this illustration depicts the Lady of Shalott in a state of boredom as she sits weaving. The artist skillfully captures her distracted gaze, hinting at her longing for something more than the monotonous task before her. Beside her, a window awaits, symbolizing both escape and danger.
