The poem draws the reader’s attention to the engrossing themes of the poet, the mysterious existence of the Lady of Shalott, her torturing loneliness in her stately mansion, her desire for her contact with the reality of the world and her tragic death. It is a poem of high moral significance and the theme thrives on some Italian romance. It is expressive This elaborate picturesqueness and his deep interest in Italian romances and legends. It is pure fantasy, entirely the result of the poet’s imagination working on a legend that impressed him at the time.
