"The Grey Sisters" (1880-81) is a painting by the British Pre-Raphaelite artist Evelyn Pickering De Morgan (1855–1919). This artwork is notable for its exploration of mythological themes, a common characteristic of De Morgan's oeuvre, which often blended classical and literary subjects with a distinctive aesthetic influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. The painting depicts the three Graeae from Greek mythology, who were sisters sharing one eye and one tooth among them. They were daughters of the sea deities Phorcys and Ceto and are known for their encounter with the hero Perseus in his quest to slay the Gorgon Medusa.

De Morgan's interpretation of the Grey Sisters reflects her interest in spiritualism and the symbolic representation of moral and philosophical concepts. The painting is executed in oil on canvas, a medium that allowed De Morgan to achieve the rich coloration and intricate detail that characterize her work. The figures are rendered with a sense of ethereal beauty and melancholy, set against a backdrop that enhances the mystical and timeless quality of the narrative.

As a female artist in the Victorian era, De Morgan faced the challenges of a male-dominated art world, yet she established a successful career and a distinctive artistic voice. Her work often addressed themes of female empowerment and social justice, which were informed by her personal beliefs and the broader cultural movements of her time.

"The Grey Sisters" is part of De Morgan's body of work that has gained renewed interest in recent years, as art historians and the public alike have sought to recognize and celebrate the contributions of women artists. The painting is an example of De Morgan's skillful blending of Pre-Raphaelite stylistic elements with her unique vision, making it a significant piece within the context of late 19th-century British art.
