EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Dorigen of Bretaigne longing for the Safe Return of her Husband" we are transported to a world filled with emotion and anticipation. Created in 1871 by the talented artist Edward Coley Burne-Jones, this watercolor masterpiece measures 26.7x37.5 cm and is housed in the prestigious Victoria & Albert Museum in London. The scene depicts Dorigen, a noblewoman from Bretaigne, as she anxiously awaits the safe return of her beloved husband. With her eyes fixed on the distant sea, she stands at a cliff's edge, gazing into the horizon with both hope and trepidation. The crashing waves serve as a metaphor for her inner turmoil, mirroring her longing and yearning. Surrounded by an organ and books, symbols of intellectual pursuits and solace during times of waiting, Dorigen's expression reveals a mix of emotions - love, fear, and unwavering devotion. Burne-Jones masterfully captures these complex feelings through his meticulous brushstrokes that bring life to every detail. This Pre-Raphaelite artwork not only showcases Burne-Jones' technical skill but also highlights his ability to convey profound human emotions through visual storytelling. As viewers engage with this print from Fine Art Finder via Bridgeman Images website (www. bridgemanimages. com), they too can feel drawn into Dorigen's world - sharing in her hopes for reunion while contemplating their own experiences of longing
