Description My interpretation of the story of the Lady of Shalott.

The poem by Tennyson: [link]

I wanted to shift away from just doing a literal translation of the famous paintings of her. I wanted to update her a bit, but still keep the essence of her character. The shards of mirror dangling around her represent the shattering of the mirror in the poem, a reminder of her curse. The net is a symbol of her entrapment.
Hope you like it.
