I’ve seen the spot on the Hogs Mill river, it’s beautiful and next to a meadow

Snance, it only gives the answer away if you know a lot about Shakespeare. We didn’t have all that stuff rammed down our throats at school so the picture was simply weird to me.

Elizabeth Siddal has been described by one biographer as a "Pre-Raphaelite supermodel" . The most well-known story about her time as a painter's subject is when she almost died while posing in a bathtub for Sir John Everett Millais as he painted his drowning Ophelia in 1852. Taken from BBC.com
