J. W. Waterhouse was a master of narrative painting; whether drawn from history, myth, or literature, his works display an unerring feeling for the dramatic moment as well as a keen sense of composition and superb technique. Add to those qualities the haunting beauty of his female subjects and you have the apotheosis of great Victorian art. Miranda--The Tempest depicts the beginning of Shakespeare's Tempest, when the magician Prospero's daughter witnesses a shipwreck from her island of exile.
O I have suffer'd, With those that I saw suffer! a brave vessel, Who had, no doubt, some noble creature in her, Dash'd all to pieces! . . .
