"Ophelia" is a painting by British artist John William Waterhouse, completed in 1910. It depicts the character Ophelia from William Shakespeare's play "Hamlet," during the moment when she is driven mad by her father Polonius's murder and her lover Hamlet's rejection, leading to her tragic death by drowning. Waterhouse's work is part of the Pre-Raphaelite tradition, known for its vivid colors, attention to naturalistic detail, and themes from mythology and literature.

In the painting, Ophelia is shown lying in a river, surrounded by lush foliage and flowers, with a faraway, melancholic expression on her face. The scene captures the poetic and morbid beauty of Ophelia's demise as described in the play. Waterhouse's portrayal is notable for its romanticized yet somber atmosphere, which is characteristic of his style. The use of light and shadow, as well as the intricate rendering of the natural environment, reflects Waterhouse's fascination with nature and his ability to convey narrative through visual means.

"Ophelia" by Waterhouse is one of several artistic interpretations of the character's final moments, a subject that has captivated artists for centuries. The painting is a testament to Waterhouse's mastery of the Pre-Raphaelite aesthetic and his contribution to the late Victorian art scene. It remains an important work within the oeuvre of Waterhouse and is celebrated for its emotional depth and technical prowess.
