The Soul of the Rose | John William Waterhouse Jigsaw Puzzle

The Soul of the Rose (1908) by John William Waterhouse is a mesmerising Pre-Raphaelite painting that captures a moment of deep introspection and longing. Inspired by Alfred, Lord Tennyson’s poem Maud, the artwork features a young woman dressed in a flowing gown, delicately inhaling the scent of a rose while leaning against an ivy-covered wall. Her expression conveys a sense of wistful reverie, as if lost in thought or memories. The rich, warm colour palette of deep reds, soft pinks, and golden hues enhances the painting's romantic and melancholic mood. Waterhouse’s signature attention to detail in the textures of fabric, hair, and flowers creates a dreamlike atmosphere, reinforcing themes of love, beauty, and fleeting moments of passion.
