The artwork, “Rita Rides on the Dolphin”, is a 1911 illustration by English artist Warwick Goble for the fairy tale “The Three Enchanted Princes” from The Pentamerone — a collection of Italian fairy tales by Giambattista Basile. It portrays Rita, a young woman with flowing hair and a graceful gown, gliding across a turquoise sea on the back of a dolphin. The story tells of three princes transformed into animals by an evil witch — a falcon, a stag, and a dolphin — and the sisters who love them enough to break the spell, restoring them to human form.
