"The Rose Bower" is a Pre-Raphaelite oil painting on canvas by the British artist John William Waterhouse, known for his depictions of women from mythology and literature. The painting features a young woman, her dark hair framing her face, gazing directly at the viewer. The woman's beauty is contrasted with the lush greenery of a rose bower, creating a sense of both innocence and sensuality. The painting is typical of Waterhouse's style, with its realistic detail and rich, painterly brushstrokes. "The Rose Bower" is a popular example of Waterhouse's work, known for its Romantic aesthetic and its evocation of the beauty of nature.
