EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene of King Rene, also known as Good King Rene, sculpting a figure while being watched by his new bride. Created by the talented artist Edward Coley Burne-Jones in pen and India ink with wash and pencil on paper, this artwork showcases the intricate details and skillful technique of the 19th century. King Rene was a prominent figure in history, holding various titles such as Duke of Anjou, Count of Provence, and King of Naples. In this image, we witness his artistic side as he delicately sculpts a figure with great concentration. His new bride stands beside him, observing his creative process with admiration. The composition exudes an air of intimacy and romance as the couple engages in this shared moment. The use of light and shadow adds depth to their figures while emphasizing the textures and contours of the sculpture taking shape before them. Burne-Jones's work is often associated with the Pre-Raphaelite movement that sought to revive medieval art aesthetics. This piece exemplifies their attention to detail and meticulous craftsmanship. Displayed at Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery, this print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into historical events through artistry. It transports us back to an era where creativity flourished under royal patronage while capturing the essence of love between two individuals united in marriage.
