The latter two are classed as 'art' rather than paintings.

http://www.witchesway.net/thewitchesway/images/pagemaster/TheLadyOfShallot_1888.jpg
the lady of Shallot
And down the river's dim expanse
Like some bold seer in a trance,
Seeing all his own mischance—
With glassy countenance
Did she look to Camelot.
And at the closing of the day
She loosed the chain, and down she lay;
The broad stream bore her far away,
The Lady of Shalott
That said, though it is far from the kinds of style I usually enjoy, something about this is incredible.
