John William Waterhouse Born: 6 April 1849, Rome, Italy Died: 10 February 1917 (aged 67), London, England Nationality: British Field: Painter Training: Royal Academy Movement: Pre-Raphaelite Works: Hylas and the Nymphs, The Lady of Shalott, Ophelia Influenced by: Lawrence Alma-Tadema, Frederic Leighton John William Waterhouse (6 April 1849 — 10 February 1917) was an English Pre-Raphaelite painter who is most famous for his paintings of female characters from Greek and Arthurian mythology. Waterhouse was one of the final Pre-Raphaelite artists, being most productive in the latter decades of the 19th century and early decades of the 20th, long after the era of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Because of this, he has been referred to as "the modern Pre-Raphaelite", and incorporated techniques borrowed from the French Impressionists into his work. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_William_Waterhouse
