How they met themselves by Karen Chappelow

Original Watercolour and Ink painting framed under glass 57x70cm

How they met themselves is an 1860 painting by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, a founding member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. It is a very dark composition that depicts the moment that a young Medieval couple comes across their doppelgängers in a dark forest. It is a terrifying encounter. The man who sees his double has drawn his sword in defence. His female companion has fainted with shock. In fiction and mythology, the doppelgänger is often portrayed as a ghostly or paranormal phenomenon and usually seen as a bringer of bad luck or death.
