"The Awakening of Adonis" is an oil painting by the British Pre-Raphaelite artist John William Waterhouse, completed in 1900. This artwork is part of Waterhouse's extensive body of work that often draws from mythology, literature, and the Pre-Raphaelite tradition of focusing on beauty and intricate detail. The painting depicts the moment from classical mythology when Adonis, a figure renowned for his beauty, is awakened by the goddess of love, Aphrodite.

In the painting, Waterhouse captures the lush sensuality of the myth, with Adonis lying on the ground, surrounded by a verdant landscape, as Aphrodite leans over him. The use of vibrant colors and the contrast between the figures' soft flesh and the natural elements are characteristic of Waterhouse's style. The composition, with its attention to naturalistic detail and the emotional connection between the characters, reflects the artist's fascination with romantic and mythological themes.

"The Awakening of Adonis" is considered a fine example of Waterhouse's mature work, showcasing his ability to blend classical subject matter with the aesthetics of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. The painting is admired for its narrative quality and its embodiment of the late 19th-century romanticism that persisted in Waterhouse's art despite the changing artistic trends of his time.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art galleries and museums, contributing to the understanding of Waterhouse's oeuvre and the broader context of Victorian art. The work continues to be studied and appreciated for its technical mastery and evocative portrayal of ancient myth.
