• The Parting of Sir Lancelot and Queen Guinevere
  “At the Poet Laureate Alfred, Lord Tennyson's suggestion, Julia Margaret Cameron created a series of illustrations for his epic poem Idylls of the King. The images that Cameron created for the Idyllsare the most illustrative works she made; she took great care with the details of costumes and props to insure the photographs' faithfulness to his narrative. She employed a variety of people as models, going to great lengths to ensure the appropriateness of sitter to subject. This image depicts the final embrace of the tragic lovers before they are forever parted.”
