Edward Burne-Jones's "Mermaid With Her Offspring" depicts a mermaid with two children, one on her shoulder and the other on her lap. The mermaid's tail is visible in the water and the composition is set against a backdrop of trees and foliage. This painting reflects Burne-Jones's Pre-Raphaelite style, known for its idealized beauty and attention to detail. The painting's themes of motherhood and the power of nature are evident through the mermaid's gentle expression and the serene landscape.
