Description
English: (see references and source) Mariana is praying for the return of her lost love, the tyrant Angelo, who cruelly spurned her on the loss of her dowry. The picture illustrates the line "And in the liquid mirror glowed the clear perfection of her face" from Tennyson's poem of the same title which was, in turn, inspired by Shakespeare's Measure for Measure. The painting is a study for a smaller painting of the same name.

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1917, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
