Lady of Shalott | John William Waterhouse Poster

Lady of Shalott | John William Waterhouse Poster

I Am Half-Sick of Shadows, said the Lady of Shalott (1916) by John William Waterhouse beautifully captures a pivotal moment from Tennyson’s poem. In this scene, the Lady of Shalott is depicted sitting at her loom, weaving a tapestry of the outside world she can only view through a mirror. She is dressed in a vibrant red gown, which contrasts sharply with the muted background. Her expression is one of melancholy and yearning, as she contemplates her cursed existence and her growing desire to break free from the loom's limitations. The title, taken from the poem’s famous line, emphasises her inner conflict—caught between the safety of her isolation and the lure of the outside world. Waterhouse's mastery of light, colour, and intricate detail in this painting evokes a sense of longing, restriction, and the cost of unfulfilled desires. Use the design tools to add custom text or personalise the image.

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame. This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again. One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up. Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font. Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.
