    Study For Nymphs Finding The Head Of Orpheus

    John William Waterhouse (British, 1849-1917)

    Nymphs gather in the dim forest, their faces lit with horror and fascination as they cradle Orpheus’ severed head. The water ripples around them, silent witness to the aftermath of violence. His lifeless eyes stare past them, still holding the echo of a song.
