The poem "The Lady of Shalott" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson and the painting of the same name by John William Waterhouse both contribute to the understanding of the tragic story of the Lady of Shalott. The poem provides detailed descriptions of the Lady's isolation and confinement in her tower, while the painting visually captures her longing gaze towards Camelot. One detail in the poem that is not present in the painting is the mention of the curse placed upon the Lady, which adds depth to her character and motivations. Conversely, the painting depicts the Lady in a boat, symbolizing her eventual journey towards her tragic fate, a detail that is not explicitly described in the poem but enhances the sense of inevitability in her story. Overall, the combination of the poem and the painting provides a rich and multi-dimensional portrayal of the Lady of Shalott's plight.
