La Belle Dame Sans Merci

Beautiful painting used to depict the poem The Beautiful Lady Without Pity by John Keats (1795-1821). In full color, this lovely painting of a lady strolling through the woods and surrounded by flowers doesn’t really seem to fit the title of the poem but that bit of irony may have been intentional by this book’s author. Either way, this public domain image of a beautiful woman is ready for downloading and may be used in your next arts and crafts or web project.

The painting is the work of William James Neatby (1860-1910).
