Here Elizabeth Siddal is inspired (like many of her fellow Pre-Raphaelite artists) by Tennyson’s poem The Lady of Shalott, 1832. She draws in pen and ink her vision of the moment that the eponymous lady breaks her resolve to only view the world through a mirror: ‘She look'd down to Camelot. / Out flew the web and floated wide; / The mirror crack'd from side to side; / 'The curse is come upon me,' cried / The Lady of Shalott.’ Siddal’s lady remains seated, but she shows how the force of the curse has cracked the mirror and torn the threads of the loom, with dynamic movements in marked contrast to the stillness of the rest of the painting.

Please note that 60 x 80 cm is the largest size option available for this artwork.

Elizabeth Eleanor Siddal (1829 – 1862) was an English artist, poet and model. She began her modelling career in 1849, and was the sitter for many well-known Pre-Raphaelite artworks, including John Everett Millais’ Ophelia, 1851-52, and her husband Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s series of paintings based on Dante Alighieri’s works. As an artist and poet, she produced more than 100 works, whose artistic value was appreciated by her contemporaries and her patron, John Ruskin, who described her as a ‘genuis’. Her sketches, drawings and watercolour paintings were often based on Medieval or folkloric themes, and her work was exhibited at the summer exhibition at Russell Place in 1857. Her artworks are held in several museum and gallery collections, including Tate’s.
