"Esther Kenworthy Waterhouse" is an 1885 oil painting by the renowned English Pre-Raphaelite artist John William Waterhouse. The portrait features Esther Kenworthy, whom Waterhouse married in 1883, making this work an intimate depiction of his spouse during the early years of their marriage. While John William Waterhouse is best known for his depictions of female characters from mythology and literature, this painting stands out as a personal and private commission, offering a glimpse into the artist's personal life.

The painting showcases Waterhouse's skill in portraiture, a genre that he practiced alongside his more famous subject matter. In "Esther Kenworthy Waterhouse," the artist's use of color, light, and texture come together to create a sensitive portrayal of his wife, capturing both her physical likeness and a sense of her personality. The composition and style may reflect the influence of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood's principles, with their emphasis on realism, attention to detail, and complex color schemes, despite the fact that Waterhouse's association with the group was more stylistic than formal.

As with many of Waterhouse's works, the painting is noted for its evocative atmosphere and the romantic aesthetic that characterizes his oeuvre. However, unlike his narrative paintings, this work does not include the mythological or literary symbolism that often features in his art. Instead, it offers a more straightforward, yet still deeply affectionate, representation of the subject.

"Esther Kenworthy Waterhouse" remains an important piece within John William Waterhouse's body of work, as it provides insight into the artist's life and his relationship with his wife. It also serves as an example of his capability to render the human figure with empathy and technical proficiency. The painting is a testament to Waterhouse's versatility as an artist and his ability to convey the beauty of the familiar, as well as the fantastical.
