Description: Hope is a vintage George Frederic Watts fine art print. Watts is perhaps best known for Hope (1886), which features a lone blindfolded female figure sitting on a globe and playing a lyre that has one string remaining. It conveys profound moral and spiritual messages. The print is 12" x 16" and is in excellent condition. George Frederic Watts (1817–1904) was a British painter and sculptor, celebrated for his allegorical works and deep philosophical themes. Often associated with the Symbolist movement, Watts sought to express universal ideas through his art, such as love, life, death, and hope. Watts was deeply influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and Victorian ideals, and his art was imbued with a sense of social responsibility. He also advocated for public art, and his legacy includes the Watts Gallery in Surrey, dedicated to his work. Throughout his life, he received numerous accolades and became one of the most respected artists of his time, earning the title of "England's Michelangelo."
