Strudwick's paintings were done in a blend of Renaissance and medevial styles, with meticulous attention to detail, especially in his treatment of draperies and accessories, and leading to a very small output. Some thirty of his paintings depict legendary and symbolic subjects, sometimes employing a lapidary technique from the Italian quattrocento. He employed rich, deep colours, faces clearly inspired by Burne-Jones and sumptuous drapery.
"Thy Music, faintly falling, dies away
Thy dear eyes dream that Love will live for aye"
The couplet that gives the picture its title is by G. F. Bodley (1827 - 1907), the emminent Gothic Revival architect who was so closely associated with the later Pre - Raphaelite movement.
