"Circe (The Sorceress)" is a 1911 oil painting by the British Pre-Raphaelite artist John William Waterhouse. The artwork is part of Waterhouse's series of paintings that depict scenes from classical mythology, particularly focusing on enchantresses and femme fatales. This painting portrays Circe, a powerful sorceress from Greek mythology, known for her role in Homer's "Odyssey," where she transforms Odysseus's men into swine.

In "Circe (The Sorceress)," Waterhouse captures the moment of the sorceress's enchantment, as she is depicted with a wand in her hand, amidst a dark, lush forest setting that suggests her isolation and the mysterious nature of her magic. The figure of Circe is central and commanding, yet her expression is enigmatic, reflecting the duality of her character as both alluring and dangerous. The painting is imbued with the rich, deep color palette and meticulous attention to detail characteristic of Waterhouse's work, from the intricate patterns on Circe's gown to the naturalistic rendering of the forest.

The painting is a testament to Waterhouse's fascination with strong, mythical women and his ability to convey narrative through his art. "Circe (The Sorceress)" is a notable example of Waterhouse's later work, where he continued to explore themes of fantasy and mythology, contributing to the enduring legacy of the Pre-Raphaelite movement's interest in literary and classical subjects. The artwork remains an important piece within Waterhouse's oeuvre, reflecting the artist's mastery in blending classical themes with his own distinctive, romantic style.

"Circe (The Sorceress)" is held in a private collection, and like many of Waterhouse's paintings, it has been widely reproduced and continues to be celebrated for its captivating representation of one of mythology's most enigmatic figures.
