Victorian Art in Britain

 Guinevere's Maying by John Collier



This picture must be amongst the very best painted by Collier. It does exhibit some of his usual deficiencies, but the overall impression is very striking. The Queen is handsome, her dress beautiful, and the blossom is well-painted. Collier, who was for a time a pupil of Alma-Tadema is very popular, and this is one of his most admired pictures, and deservedly so.
