Eniko by Von Unwerth reminds us of a pre-Raphaelite nymph

Written by Tania Braukämper.

What do John William Waterhouse and Ellen Von Unwerth have in common?

Not much, and the two probably don’t find themselves side by side in a sentence too often. Von Unwerth’s works are often brazenly erotic; Waterhouse’s only subtly so.
