Pamela Widmerpool is envisioned as the Beggar Maid. The painting is also mentioned in the story "The Beggar Maid" by Alice Munro, where Patrick compares Rose to Beggar Maid, and Rose then looks at the picture only to find out how un-like King Cophetua Patrick would ever be, and how impossible their marriage would be (which turns to be the case). It also merits a mention in A.N. Wilson's novel "Kindly Light." In <i><a href="/wiki/Julia_(novel)" title="Julia (novel)">Julia</a></i>, Peter Straub's first horror novel, Mark tells the title character that she has always reminded him of the beggar maid in the painting. Julia goes to the Tate Gallery to look at the painting, silently agreeing that she does resemble the maid (and fancying that the king looks like Mark). </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div
