Inspired by the work of Chauncey Bradley Ives.
This piece of art shows the story of the medieval legend Undine or Ondine.
Undine is a mortal but souless water nymph who becomes human when she falls in love with a man but is doomed to die if he is unfaithful to her.
 
Undine rises from the water to take revenge on her unfaithful husband.
Unlike other artists, Ives chose to represent the heroine as victimized rather than vengeful.
This piece is my interpretation of this timeless tale.
