"Gather Ye Rosebuds While Ye May" is a painting by the British Pre-Raphaelite artist John William Waterhouse, completed in 1908. The artwork is one of Waterhouse's many interpretations of themes from literature and poetry, in this case, drawing inspiration from the carpe diem theme, which is Latin for "seize the day," popularized in the poetry of the 17th-century English poet Robert Herrick. The title of the painting is a direct reference to the first line of Herrick's poem "To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time," which urges the reader to make the most of their youth before it fades.

The painting depicts a young woman in a classical, flowing gown, surrounded by a lush landscape as she gathers roses into her garment. The act of picking roses is symbolic of cherishing the fleeting moments of youth and beauty, a common motif in Waterhouse's work, which often explored the transience of life and the poignancy of youth. The setting is idyllic and romantic, characteristic of Waterhouse's style, which blended classical and Pre-Raphaelite elements.

Waterhouse's "Gather Ye Rosebuds While Ye May" is celebrated for its rich color palette, attention to detail, and the evocative mood it captures. The painting is a testament to Waterhouse's fascination with mythological and literary subjects, and his ability to convey complex themes through his art. As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of a private collection, and it continues to be admired for its aesthetic beauty and its poignant reminder of the impermanence of life.
