"May. Freshwater" is a portrait photograph by Julia Margaret Cameron from 1870. Cameron was known for her soft-focus style and dramatic compositions, which are evident in this work. The photograph features a young woman in profile, her face obscured by a dark and mysterious figure. The image is evocative of a sense of longing and introspection. It's a prime example of Cameron's work that was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite movement.
