Megan Marie Hart<p>The artworks he was reminded of were Ophelia by John Everett Millais because of the lush flowers and plants and Pandora by John William Waterhouse because of the dress.

SherBeareth<p>Some of famed pre-Raphaelite John Willams Waterhouse’s less ogled works are magnetic gems on canvas.
