, 1817
– 1904

George Frederic Watts is considered one of the most successful British artists of the 19th century. He is best known as a painter, yet his achievements as a sculptor are equally significant. His first major sculptural work, Clytie of 1868, already revealed his ambition: a classical subject transformed into a dynamic, emotionally charged bust, twisting through its axis with a distinctly Romantic sensibility.
