3 cheers for topic revivals.

I like the name, Ophelia, from the Shakespeare play Hamlet. Pretty name.

And blue is my favourite colour.

The funny thing, and I didn't know this before, but John William Waterhouse did a painting called "Blue Ophelia," based on the same tragic suicidal heroine:



~John William Waterhouse was born in Italy in 1849. His early work was influenced by Alma-Tadema, and later he became associated with the pre-Raphaelites. He devoted a lot of his time to classical subjects and the ‘Femmes fatales’ of literature, his paintings were mainly of women, where as men were usually depicted as victims. Waterhouse died in London in 1917.
