Whoa! Just went looking around online and discovered the reason why The Lady of Shalott (which is in the Tate collection) wasn't on display yesterday.
It's because it's on loan to the Royal Academy for a huge Waterhouse retrospective, with other such Waterhouse masterpieces as Hylas and the Nymphs, Circe Invidiosa, and A Mermaid.
OH MY EFFING GOD!!!! I HAVE TO GO SEE THIS THING!!!!
It's in London, easily accessible by tube, and it's got nearly every major Waterhouse painting, most of which I've worshiped since I could spell Waterhouse. I'm going I'm going I'm so definitely going!! Either this weekend or Thursday afternoon, depending on the progress I make with my English essay. Or, I suppose, Friday afternoon, at which point my essay will be turned in and not hanging over my head.
OH MY GOD! I just cannot believe this. TIMING WIN!!
