EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Edward Coley Burne-Jones' "Study of a hill fairy for Arthur in Avalon" created in 1885. The pencil on paper artwork measures 21x14 cm and is currently held in a private collection. In this enchanting piece, the British artist explores the realm of fantasy and imagination that was characteristic of English art during the nineteenth century. The image depicts a solitary man, deep in contemplation as he gazes at the ethereal figure before him. With his hand resting on his chin, he appears lost in thought, captivated by the magical presence of the hill fairy. The young man's posture exudes an air of fascination and wonderment as he studies every intricate detail of this fantastical creature. Burne-Jones' meticulous pencil drawing beautifully captures both the delicate features of the fairy and the thoughtful expression on her face. As one delves into this late nineteenth-century masterpiece, it becomes evident that there is more to discover beyond what meets the eye. This evocative study invites viewers to immerse themselves in a world where reality intertwines with myth and literature. It serves as a testament to Burne-Jones' skillful craftsmanship and his ability to transport us into realms unknown through his pre-Raphaelite style. As we contemplate this mesmerizing artwork, we are reminded that within our own imaginations lies endless possibilities waiting to be explored – just like Arthur himself did when encountering mythical beings such as this hill fairy in Avalon.
