->''"And Circe now contaminates this bay,\\
polluting it with noxious poisons; there\\
she scatters venom drawn from dreadful roots\\
and, three-times-nine times, murmurs an obscure\\
and tangled maze of words, a labyrinth—\\
the magic chant that issues from her lips.\\
Then Scylla comes; no sooner has she plunged\\
waist-deep into the water than she sees,\\
around her hips, the horrid barking shapes."''
-->-- ''Literature/TheMetamorphoses''
''Circe Invidiosa'' is an oil painting by Creator/JohnWilliamWaterhouse. It was completed in 1892 and done in the Pre-Raphaelite style.
The painting draws from a story from Myth/ClassicalMythology. The sorceress Circe has fallen for the sea-god Glaucus, who does not return her affections and loves the beautiful nymph Scylla instead. In her jealousy, Circe poisons the water Scylla lives in, turning her into a terrible monster.
The painting is Waterhouse's second depiction of Circe, after 1891's ''Circe Offering the Cup to Ulysses''. He would paint the character again in ''The Sorceress'', completed in 1915. It is primarily housed in the Art Gallery of South Australia in Adelaide.

!!Tropes in this painting:
* GreenEyedMonster: The painting's title literally means "Jealous Circe". It depicts the moment in ''Literature/TheMetamorphoses'' where Circe, jealous of Glaucus's love for Scylla, poisons Scylla's home and turns her into the mythical sea monster.
* PoisonIsEvil: Poisoning her love rival and turning her into a monster in the process doesn't exactly make Circe look like a saint here...
* SceneryCensor: Circe's arm covers her bare breast.
* TechnicolorToxin: In contrast to the [[WaterIsBlue pure blue of Scylla's home]], the poison Circe pours into it is a bright green. It's got a double meaning since [[GreenEyedMonster she's poisoning Scylla out of envy]].
* TentacledTerror: ImpliedTrope -- we don't see the extent of Scylla's transformation into a sea monster, but we do see tentacles and fins beneath the surface.
* TrueBlueFemininity: A color scheme that permeates a painting telling the story of a woman's jealousy. The enchantress Circe is wearing a blue dress, standing over a blue pool, and her love rival is also turning into a blue monster.
* WaterIsBlue: The waters Scylla lives in are a notable blue, in contrast to the green poison Circe is pouring into it.
