Helen of Troy is an 1898 painting by Evelyn De Morgan depicting Helen of Troy; it was commissioned by William Imrie of Liverpool.Compositionally the painting is similar to De Morgan’s Flora and Cassandra: Helena is standing upright and tall in a peaceful posture that reminds to Boticcelli’s representations of Greek and Roman goddesses (such as Athena or Venus) that are at the same time an evocation of classical art a usual characteristic between Renaissance artists.
