The Holy Well (1916) by William Orpen (1878-1931) includes classical nude figures, for allegorical purposes, perhaps to suggest the innocence before Adam and Eve’s fall from grace, rather than as a realistic, literal description of a pilgrimage to a holy well.

The Luncheon (2002) by Caroline McCarthy (b.1971)
The Luncheon (2002) by Caroline McCarthy (b.1971) is a photograph of a Dutch-style ‘still life’. Her version is modelled from water and toilet tissue, with plastic glasses and tinfoil plates, all resting on a ‘tablecloth’ made from black bin-liners. The work reflects concerns about wastefullness of consumer society.
