Miranda-The Tempest 1916

John William Waterhouse's "Miranda-The Tempest" from 1916, depicts a scene from Shakespeare's play *The Tempest.* The painting features Miranda, the daughter of Prospero, standing on a rocky shore as a storm rages in the background. This Pre-Raphaelite-inspired painting, known for its dramatic use of light and color, captures the awe and wonder of Miranda as she witnesses the power of nature. The depiction of the shipwreck highlights the themes of power, control, and the tempestuous nature of love, all prevalent in the play.
