"Queen Eleanor" is a painting by the English Pre-Raphaelite artist Anthony Frederick Sandys (1829–1904). The work, which is also known as "Queen Eleanor and Fair Rosamund," depicts a legendary episode from the life of Eleanor of Aquitaine, the wife of King Henry II of England. According to the tale, Eleanor confronts Rosamund Clifford, her husband's mistress, and forces her to choose between a dagger and a bowl of poison, thus sealing her fate.

Sandys, known for his meticulous and highly finished style, captures the dramatic tension of the encounter with rich, vibrant colors and elaborate detail. The painting is emblematic of the Pre-Raphaelite movement's fascination with medieval themes, chivalric romance, and the portrayal of strong, often tragic, female figures. The artist's portrayal of the two women reflects the Victorian era's complex attitudes towards femininity, power, and morality.

The exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, but Sandys' active period and the stylistic characteristics of the work suggest it was likely completed in the latter half of the 19th century. "Queen Eleanor" is considered an important example of Sandys' oeuvre and contributes to the broader tapestry of Pre-Raphaelite art, which sought to defy the conventions of the time by drawing inspiration from the rich visual and literary sources preceding the High Renaissance.

The painting's current location is not specified in widely available sources, and it may be privately owned or housed in a collection not readily accessible to the public. As such, "Queen Eleanor" by Anthony Frederick Sandys remains a notable yet elusive piece of Pre-Raphaelite art, its full appreciation hindered by the scarcity of its public display.
