Miss Betty Pollock 1911

"Miss Betty Pollock" is a 1911 portrait painting by the British Pre-Raphaelite artist John William Waterhouse. The artwork features a young woman, the subject's namesake, in a natural setting, perhaps a garden or woodland. Her soft features, delicate hands and simple, yet elegant attire, are characteristic of Waterhouse's style, which often portrayed romantic and idealized feminine figures. The muted palette and atmospheric composition enhance the painting's dreamy, almost ethereal quality, making it a captivating example of late Pre-Raphaelite art.
