Description:

John William Waterhouse's oil painting "Thisbe" (c. 1909) captivates with its vibrant reds and muted earth tones. The eponymous heroine, draped in a sumptuous crimson gown, leans attentively against a wall, her dark tresses and pensive expression evoking curiosity and longing. This work, inspired by Ovid's tale of star-crossed lovers, explores themes of forbidden romance and tragic fate. Waterhouse masterfully captures Thisbe's anticipation as she listens for her beloved Pyramus, unaware of the tragedy to unfold. The painting's secret lies in the unseen barrier between the lovers, symbolizing the obstacles that separate them. Through his evocative brushstrokes, Waterhouse invites viewers to contemplate the power and peril of passionate love.
