From the collection of Ashmolean Museum
The Ideal is a 1867 unspecified by George Frederic Watts, held at Ashmolean Museum.
This painting depicts a woman in a white, flowing garment, with her left arm raised above her head and her right arm reaching out to the side. She appears to be dancing or in motion. The background of the painting is dark and shadowy, with hints of green and brown tones. The woman's pose and movement suggest a sense of freedom and joy, while the dark background adds a sense of mystery and depth to the scene. The overall effect is one of dynamic energy and emotion.
