William George
Isabella and the Basil Pot
Pastel on full sized door
Fine Arts League of the Carolinas student and artist William George has created this stunning door after the masterpiece by John White Alexander (1856 - 1915) an American Symbolist painter. The painting depicts the poem by Keats of the same name where the protagonist, Isabella, is described as caressing the basil pot in which she has buried her murdered lover Lorenzo's severed head.
