Miranda, daughter of Prospero from William Shakespeare's "The Tempest," was isolated on an island with her father for twelve years before a storm wreaks havoc sinking a sailing ship bringing love to her world. With his renowned use of colour, the stormy greys and blues of a storm tossed rocky shore, Waterhouse depicts Miranda with an intense expression, windswept hair and a flowing blue dress reflecting the storm and sea. John William Waterhouse, the well-known Victorian painter who embraced the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood's style, communicating his aesthetic vision through the vivid use of colour, Neo-classical, formalism, and realistic depictions of strong women using romantic poems, Greek myths, and Arthurian legends. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work's texture, depth of colour, and even its subtle brushstrokes, which are applied by hand. This replica , European style, bright gold-toned, ribbed frame is cast in quality designer resin with an acanthus leaf and floret border that draws the eye toward the beautiful image. Proudly printed and framed in the USA using imported moulding.
The colors on this piece are vibrant and it is beautiful. I ordered the 22 x 28. This is the third framed artwork I've ordered from them and the only downside to these framed art pieces is the proportion size of the frame to the artwork. The frame is great quality, thick and substantial. But if you are ordering anything smaller than 20" its going to look huge against the picture. On a good note, the framing is awesome; they pay great attention to detail, provide hanging hardware, and even put little plastic pads on the back so it won't scuff your wall when you hang it..
