Artist's model.


Documented Relationship

- research by Scott Thomas Buckle published in Ethel and Narcissus - a closer look at two of Waterhouse’s models and A Waterhouse Sketch Discovered:

The same sketchbook also contains a preparatory sketch for 'Echo and Narcissus' inscribed with the names and addresses of two models. The first, 'Beresford', of '19 St Olaf's Road, Fulham', can be found in the 1901 Census lists as 'Henry Beresford', a 21 year old whose profession is given as 'Artist's Model'. Simon Toll confirms the identification of the model for Narcissus in his Herbert Draper monograph, but gives no source for the information. He also mentions that Harry Beresford was the model for Draper's 'The Youth of Ulysses', a painting which features another Waterhouse model Mary Lloyd.
