Ophelia (lying in the meadow) - John William Waterhouse 1905 by forgottenbeauty | Redbubble Ophelia (lying in the meadow) - John William Waterhouse 1905 This is probably my favorite of the three painted by Waterhouse. I think this one does the best job of showing her state of mind.

An illustration by F H Townsend scanned from the 1905 first edition of 'They'. It shows a partly transparent little boy in a blue smock running away from a fountain in a grand garden. Behind we can see the approach of an early 20th Century motor car.
