Beschreibung
John William Waterhouse's *Ophelia* fängt die tragische Shakespeare-Figur in einem präraffaelitischen Stil ein. Das Gemälde zeigt Ophelia liegend in einem Blumenfeld nahe dem Bach, wo sie ihrem Schicksal begegnen wird.
John William Waterhouse's Gemälde *Ophelia* aus dem Jahr 1889 zeigt eine Szene aus Shakespeares *Hamlet*. Die tragische Figur Ophelia, die durch den Tod ihres Vaters und Hamlets Zurückweisung in den Wahnsinn getrieben wurde, liegt vor ihrem versehentlichen Ertrinken nahe einem Bach. Waterhouse fängt Ophelia in einem Moment heiterer Resignation ein, umgeben von der üppigen, überwucherten Vegetation des Flussufers. Das Gemälde ist im präraffaelitischen Stil ausgeführt, der sich durch seine Detailgenauigkeit, die Verwendung symbolischer Bildsprache und die Darstellung literarischer Sujets auszeichnet. Der Künstler gibt die Blumen und das Laub akribisch wieder, wobei jede Blüte möglicherweise eine symbolische Bedeutung im Zusammenhang mit Ophelias Schicksal trägt. Die Palette wird von Grün- und Brauntönen dominiert, wobei das Weiß von Ophelias Kleid einen auffälligen Kontrast bildet. Die Komposition lenkt den Blick des Betrachters auf Ophelias Gesicht, ihr Ausdruck vermittelt ein Gefühl von Melancholie und Akzeptanz. Waterhouse's *Ophelia* ist eines von mehreren Gemälden dieses Themas des Künstlers, wobei jedes eine leicht unterschiedliche Interpretation der ikonischen Figur bietet.

Artist Biography
John William Waterhouse
Waterhouse painted women from myths who were about to drown, be cursed, or meet something terrible. The Lady of Shalott drifting downstream to her death. Hylas being pulled into a pool by nymphs. Circe offering poison. Ophelia. Echo and Narcissus. The women are always beautiful. The water is always involved. The moment is always the one just before everything goes wrong.
He was born in Rome to English parents (both painters) and grew up surrounded by Italian art before moving to London as a child. He studied at the Royal Academy Schools and exhibited there from 1874 until his death in 1917. He was a Royal Academician, successful, respected, and thoroughly Victorian.
His technique is Pre-Raphaelite in spirit but Impressionist in handling. The early works are tighter, more archaeological, influenced by Alma-Tadema's classical scenes. The later paintings are looser, with broader brushwork and richer colour. The Lady of Shalott (1888) combines both: precise detail in the boat and tapestry, atmospheric softness in the trees and water.
He painted several versions of the same subjects. Two versions of The Lady of Shalott. Two of Ophelia. Multiple paintings of Circe. He returned to the same stories because the stories gave him what he needed: a beautiful woman in a dramatic landscape at a moment of transformation. The formula was reliable and the execution was consistently good.
He is sometimes grouped with the Pre-Raphaelites but was a generation younger than Rossetti, Millais, and Hunt. He was closer to the Aesthetic Movement and to late Victorian narrative painting. He is one of the most reproduced painters in the history of art prints, which would have pleased him.
