John Collier's 1910 painting "A Great Lady" depicts a woman in regal attire, adorned with a crown and veil, ascending a stone staircase. Two figures in medieval garb follow behind her, carrying her long train. Collier's painting is a masterful example of the Pre-Raphaelite style, known for its meticulous detail and romanticized portrayal of historical figures. The work evokes a sense of grandeur and mystery, inviting viewers to ponder the identity and story of the "Great Lady."
