EDITORS COMMENTS

This enchanting oil on canvas painting, created between 1870-90, measures an impressive 122x250 cm and is part of the Faringdon Collection in Buscot, Oxon, UK. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness the pivotal moment when the brave prince embarks on his perilous journey through the dense thicket of briars to rescue Sleeping Beauty. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life - from the intricate armor adorning the prince's figure to the ethereal beauty of nature surrounding him. Burne-Jones' mastery lies not only in his technical skill but also in his ability to evoke emotions through color and composition. The rich hues and delicate brushstrokes transport us into a world where time stands still, where curses are broken by true love's kiss. This painting captures all the elements that make fairy tales so timeless - magic spells, impenetrable thorns, and slumbering princesses awaiting their destined saviors. It is a testament to Burne-Jones' deep appreciation for literature and mythology as he seamlessly translates these narratives onto canvas.
