"Thisbe" is a painting by the British Pre-Raphaelite artist John William Waterhouse, completed in 1909. The artwork is a representation of the tragic character from the ancient Roman myth of Pyramus and Thisbe, a tale of two ill-fated lovers that served as an inspiration for William Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet." Waterhouse, known for his depictions of classical and literary subjects, captures Thisbe in a moment of profound sorrow and despair, following the discovery of her lover's demise.

The painting is characterized by Waterhouse's signature style, which often blended classical themes with a romanticized, dream-like aesthetic. In "Thisbe," the artist utilizes a rich palette and meticulous attention to detail to convey the emotional intensity of the scene. The figure of Thisbe is central to the composition, draped in flowing garments that echo the Pre-Raphaelite fascination with historical accuracy in costume. Her expression is one of anguish, and the setting, likely a moonlit garden, adds to the painting's somber mood.

Measuring 100 x 73.7 cm, "Thisbe" is an oil on canvas that showcases Waterhouse's skill in portraying the female form and his ability to evoke narrative through visual means. The artwork is part of a series of works by Waterhouse that explore themes of love, mythology, and tragedy, contributing to the artist's reputation as a master of the romantic and the mythic in Victorian art.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting's current location or ownership status is not specified. "Thisbe" is one of the lesser-known works by Waterhouse, and while it may not be as widely recognized as some of his other paintings, such as "The Lady of Shalott" or "Hylas and the Nymphs," it remains a significant example of his work during the early 20th century and his enduring fascination with tragic, classical heroines.
