Arthur in Avalon
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Arthur in Avalon Date: 1881), a captivating and evocative work of art by the renowned English artist, Sir Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898), invites us to embark on a journey into the mystical and enchanting world of King Arthur and the mythical land of Avalon. This beautiful print, created in the late 19th century, showcases Burne-Jones' distinctive Gothic style and his masterful ability to evoke a sense of harmony and tranquility. In the center of the image, we see the dead but revered monarch, King Arthur, seated on a throne-like rock, his feet resting in the calm waters of Avalon. Surrounding him are a group of priestesses, their faces serene and their bodies draped in flowing robes, as they laps or lay their hands upon him. The emperor, or perhaps a leader from the Middle Ages, sits at Arthur's feet, playing a musical instrument, adding to the sound of the peaceful scene. The historical and mythical figures in this painting are depicted with a fine attention to detail and a deep sense of respect for the rich history and traditions of England's monarchy. The use of pagan imagery and the connection to the natural world further emphasize the spiritual and otherworldly aspects of this scene. Sir Edward Burne-Jones' "Arthur in Avalon" (Arthur in Avalon Date: 1881) is a testament to the artist's skill and vision, transporting us to a time and place of beauty, wonder, and the power of kings and rulers. This print, with its intricate details and evocative imagery, remains a fine example of the Gothic revival and the enduring allure of the legends and stories of medieval England.
