A Sea-Nymph, Edward Burne-Jones, 1881
A red-haired mermaid with a pale, bare torso rises above turquoise waves, holding a fish aloft in one hand and a shell-like object in the other. Her scaled, silvery-green tail curls through the water beneath, while more fish leap and swim around her under a pale blue sky. The painting is set in an ornate gilded frame.
