Description
Detail of larger painting. Waterhouse's great mythological subject The Awakening of Adonis (Collection of Lord Lloyd-Webber) was painted in 1899, but was not finished in time to send to the Royal Academy that year, and was therefore held over to the summer exhibition of 1900. On that occasion it was recognised as one of the artist's most powerful and characteristic works
