It depicts Hylas, a male youth in classical garb, wearing a blue tunic with a red sash, and bearing a wide-necked water jar. He is bending down beside a pond in a glade of lush green foliage, reaching out towards seven young women, the water nymphs, who are emerging from the pond among the leaves and flowers of <a href="/wiki/Nymphaeaceae" title="Nymphaeaceae">Nymphaeaceae</a> (water lilies), including an early depiction of the yellow waterlily, <i><a href="/wiki/Nuphar_lutea" title="Nuphar lutea">Nuphar lutea</a></i>. The nymphs are naked, their alabaster skin luminous in the dark but clear water, with yellow and white flowers in their auburn hair. They have very similar physical features, perhaps based on just two models. </p><p>Hylas is being enticed to enter the water, from which he will not return. One of the nymphs holds his wrist and elbow, a second plucks at his tunic, and a third holds out some pearls in the palm of her hand. The face of Hylas in profile is shadowed and barely visible, but the faces of the nymphs are clearly visible as they gaze upon him. The scene is depicted from a slightly elevated position, looking down at the water like Hylas, so no sky is visible. Hylas's position forces the viewer's focus onto the nymphs in the water and the lack of reference to his relationship with Hercules emphasizes that the narrative of the painting is not about Hylas's experiences, but about the sinister nature of the nymphs. </p><p>Some of Waterhouse's preparatory sketches are in the <a href="/wiki/Ashmolean_Museum" title="Ashmolean Museum">Ashmolean Museum</a> in Oxford. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Significance">Significance</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Hylas_and_the_Nymphs_(painting)&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Significance"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Hylas was a recurrent theme for British artists in the 19th and early 20th centuries, with examples by <a href="/wiki/William_Etty" title="William Etty">William Etty</a> (1833) and <a href="/wiki/Henrietta_Rae" title="Henrietta Rae">Henrietta Rae</a> (1910), and an earlier example by Waterhouse himself (1893).
