This poem was written by John Keats in 1819 and it tells the story of a knight-at-arms and a beautiful lady without pity who is said to be a “faery’s child”. This mysterious woman is a femme fatale who attracts lovers and spellbinds them until they die. I love this poem because it tells a very interesting and enthralling story. Moreover, it can be connected to two wonderful paintings which represent the same story: “La belle dame sans merci” painted by Frank Dicksee, and another painting which has the same title painted by John William Waterhouse.
