A Tale from the Decameron by J W Waterhouse |
|
|
| Bought direct from the artist in 1916 for £700.00. This picture refers to refugees from the great plague of the 14th century, whiling away their time in storytelling. This picture, with its flowers & beautiful women, attractive dresses, rapt expressions is amongst the finest of the painters late pictures. |
