You might want to look up the legend of Elaine, a.k.a. the Lady of Shallott, who died of unrequited love for Sir Lancelot. The story has been the subject of several famous paintings.

Maybe this painting called "alone and forsaken", very popular in the late 19th century and done by Heinrich Vosberg in the year 1889, in spite of the discussions around the name of the author you can find on the web.
