John William Waterhouse


victorian
1849-1917
fascinated by mythology
had a love hate relationship with women in his paintings
but a recurring theme was that women's beauty will ultimately lead men to their doom
beautiful paintings although felt very odd throughout exhibit, felt like he hated women but painted them so beautifully

exhibit on at Musée des Beaux-Arts in Montreal until February 7, 2010
