John William Waterhouse was a British artist who worked in the style of the Victorian Pre-Raphaelites, often painting subjects of Greek mythology and Arthurian legend, and Shakesperean characters. His work could be considered romantic realism, as it is filled with detail but romantic scenes and characters.
