one day the lady saw sir lancelot passing on his way in the reflection of the mirror, and dared to look out at camelot, bringing about a curse. the lady escaped by boat during an autumn storm, inscribing the lady of shalott on the prow. as she sailed towards camelot and certain death, she sang a lament. her frozen body was found shortly afterwards by the knights and ladies of camelot, one of whom is lancelot, who prayed to god to have mercy on her soul. the tapestry she wove during her imprisonment was found draped over the side of the boat. although the painting is typically pre-raphaelite in composition and tone, its central framing, as well as the linear echoes between the leaves of the overhanging trees and the hair and creases of the lady's dress and tapestry, betray formal and spatial elements borrowed the earlier neo-classical style. it is typically pre-raphaelite in that it illustrates a vulnerable and doomed woman and is bathed in natural early-evening light. the lady is portrayed staring away the crucifix, which sits beside three candles. during the late nineteenth century, candles were often used to symbolise life: in this image, two have blown out.
