Edward Coley Burne-Jones (1833-1898) - protégé of Pre-Raphaelite master Dante Gabriel Rossetti and close friend and associate of William Morris, ipioneer of the Arts and Crafts Movement - decided at a young age to devote his life to art. Largely self-taught, he was encouraged and advised by Rossetti while he collaborated with and was insoired by Morris, but Burna-Jones developed a unique style of painting that by the late 1870s had the critics enthralled. In art drawn from fairy tales, Arthurian legend, chivalrie lore, and classical epic, Burne-Jones journeyed to a personal romanticized past, but at the same time his exquisite imagery transported his audience out of their own progressive age into a land 'that never was, never will be'. Curator and art historian Debra N. Mancoff supplies in 'Burne-Jones' a fresh and illuminating portrait of the painter. More than a simple account of his life and works, this book explores the enduring themes in his art and follows the artist in his quest for his aesthetic ideal.
