It is based on the final passage in the poem:

But Lancelot mused a little space;

He said, "She has a lovely face;

God in his mercy lend her grace,

"The Lady of Shalott."

This painting is by William Daniels which depicts the working condition of the women during the industrial revolution. This picture was obtained from victorianweb.org/painting/daniels/1.jpg.

In this painting I decided to paint how I portayed a scene in the "Goblin Market" by Christina Rossetti. Lizzie talked of how a women named Jeanie had eaten the fruits of the goblins and died on the groung and no grass or flowers grow where she died. On the right side of the painting I attempted to paint the juicy fruits that the goblins were offering women. Then there is a path that splits the goblins market from the women. I used a couple different mediums: water color, acrylic, and some markers. I am not the best artist but I thought it would be fun to change it up.
