A book which ought to serve as an archetype for the production of an art book, in my humble opinion. It begins with a short biography and proceed to reproductions of Burne-Jones' paintings, all in large format, with critical comments and captions opposite. As always, it helps if one is a devotee of the artist; Burne-Jones is a favorite. Any student of nineteenth-century painting will find the book profitable, though. ( ) This is a collection of large reproductions of Burne-Jones's work, with some basic interpretation of each. It is not for those wishing an in-depth analysis of his work, but it is a lovely choice for those who enjoy his paintings. Those desiring a broader and deeper look at his work should consider Edward Burne-Jones, Victorian Artist-Dreamer by Stephen Wildman. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Burne-Jones, the Pre-Raphaelite painter and leader of the Aesthetic Movement is celebrated in this biographical, art and reference title that reproduces many of his works. Born in Birmingham, the son of a craftsman, Burne-Jones showed precocious ability at school. At Oxford University he met William Morris where they established a mutual interest in art. Their first important influence was that of one of the founding fathers of Pre-Raphaelitism, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, with whom in 1857 they painted murals at the Oxford Union. After Oxford his painting career developed and he rapidly established his position as the leader of the Aesthetic Movement. Burne-Jones also worked for Morris's firm, supplying designs for stained glass, tapestries, tiles and other products, including his own illustrations for the celebrated Kelmscott Chaucer.
