Critique by !sportyoldude May 6, 2012, 12:51:09 AM

There is nothing heartening or hopeful about this scene. The aura of melancholy permeates the damp air as the last glimmer of sunlight descends beyond the trees. In henry James the turn of the screw miss Jessel followed Peter Quint into the after life. This piece can be viewed in both the metaphorical and the literal sense. On one hand the picture is an allegory for passing into the netherworld. The island that the woman is approaching is populated by dead trees and living shrubbery indicating the duality of the spectral world. She is neither real nor imaginary existing in her own dark dream, corporeal only to herself and a ghost to others.

Simultaneously the picture could be seen as depicting the first steps in a journey to self destruction. The bleakness of the woman's surroundings can be interpreted as reflecting the despair within herself. She is driven by love to an uncertain perhaps dark and dismal afterlife, or oblivion. She is not unhappy to leave this world she is only unhappy because she has to live in it without her beloved. Her heart broken she has abandoned the last vestiges of self preservation, preferring to take her chances in death rather than suffer alone in life. She is confident that true love will find her.
