Original Description
Evelyn de Morgan’s Clytie (1886–1887) is a mesmerizing Pre-Raphaelite masterpiece that captures the tragic beauty of Clytie, a water nymph from Greek mythology who pined for the sun god Apollo. The painting glows with ethereal warmth, as Clytie’s golden hair and luminous drapery seem to melt into the sunset sky, embodying her transformation into a sunflower. De Morgan’s intricate brushwork and rich symbolism—floral motifs, flowing lines—reflect her allegiance to the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood’s ideals of nature, emotion, and medieval revival. A founding female artist in the male-dominated movement, her work stands out for its mystical femininity and spiritual depth, bridging Romanticism and Symbolism. Clytie remains a poignant testament to unrequited love and artistic virtuosity, securing her legacy in 19th-century British art.
For a striking home or office display, Clytie’s celestial palette of amber, gold, and soft blues complements spaces with warm neutrals or jewel-toned decor. Hang it in a well-lit alcove or above a fireplace to echo its radiant glow, ideally in a frame with delicate gilt detailing to enhance its Pre-Raphaelite opulence. The painting’s vertical composition suits high-ceilinged rooms or narrow walls, while its mythic theme pairs elegantly with Victorian furniture, botanical prints, or Art Nouveau accents. For offices, it adds a touch of poetic inspiration—place it near reading nooks or workspaces to channel its contemplative energy. A medium-large size (around 24"x36") ensures visibility without overwhelming intimate settings.
