The painting Ophelia by John Everett Millais depicts a young woman sitting in a river, surrounded by flowers and foliage. She is holding a branch of lavender in her right hand and has a lemon slice in her left hand. The background of the painting features a blurred view of trees and hills, with a few birds flying overhead. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of melancholy and sadness, capturing the tragic story of Ophelia's death as described in Shakespeare's play Hamlet.
