Talk:Circe Offering the Cup to Ulysses

Did he use the statue?
There are striking similarities to how Circe is represented here, and how she appears at File:Circe Gumery cour Carree Louvre.jpg. To my eyes, she appears to be the same person, just with her head at a different angle and possibly having lost some weight, both in order to fit the ideal of beauty in the day. The feet are quite similar, the nose

Is there any information on whether Waterhouse intentionally used the sculpture as a model?
