Sir Edward Burne-Jones

Pavilion Books Ltd. London, 1993. Second Impression, Hardcover (Original Cloth). Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. 9781857930177 book designed by Bernard Higton; beige end-papers; 10-page illustrated biography of th artist's life & works; list of plates, followed by 40 full-page colour plates with facing descriptions; select bibliography; list of principal public collections containing works by Burne-Jones. Almost a century after his death, the name of Burne-Jones has become synonymous with the history and achievements of the Pre-Raphaelites, yet he was a relative latecomer to the movement and in many respects transcended its aspirations, becoming regarded as the leader of the Aesthetic Movement, a precursor of Symbolism and one of the pivotal figures in nineteenth-century art. In this, the first monograph on the artist for twenty years, Russell Ash outlines the remarkable life and work of this enormously influential painter. He traces his progress from his background in Birmingham, through his university career at Oxford and his association with William Morris, Rossetti and other members of the Pre-Raphaelite circle, into the London artistic milieu. His sources of inspiration in medieval legend and literature are examined, as are his travels, major commissions and decorative and other work in a variety of media including stained glass, tapestries and book illustra¬tion. Size: Small Folio (over 12" -19" tall). unpaginated. Dust Jacket is in very good condition, without tears or chips or other damage. Gilt titles spine. burgundy cloth. Quantity Available: 1.

'Poems of the Seasons', drawn from writings covering four hundred years, offers a wealth of lyrical gems beautifully complemented by Gordon Beningfield's sensitive watercolours, some of which have been painted especially for this anthology.
