The Fate of Ophelia: The Art and Symbolism of a Tragic Muse
Today on More than a Muse, Stauney and Sadie talk all things Ophelia, a character whose symbolism and artistic representation have captivated audiences for centuries. In this episode, we explore the layers of meaning behind her tragic story, examining how artists and writers have interpreted her character through various lenses. A highlight is John Everett Millais' iconic painting of Ophelia drowning, which has become an enduring legacy of her character, capturing the haunting beauty and profound tragedy of her fate. Join us as we unravel the mystery and beauty of one of literature's most iconic figures (and discuss all things Taylor Swift).
