EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Pyramus and Thisbe - Pyramus Draws His Sword to Slay Himself" transports us into the realm of tragic love and heart-wrenching separation. Created in 1866 by the talented artist Edward Coley Burne-Jones, this pencil and ink masterpiece is housed at the Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery. The image depicts a poignant moment from the ancient Greek myth of Pyramus and Thisbe. In this scene, Pyramus, consumed by grief after mistakenly believing his beloved Thisbe has perished, draws his sword with trembling hands to end his own life. The intensity of emotion is palpable as we witness his desperate act amidst a dense wood. The Victorian-era influence shines through in every stroke of Burne-Jones' pre-Raphaelite style. The intricate details capture our attention: the delicate shawl draped over Pyramus' shoulder symbolizing loss; lion prints on the ground signifying danger lurking nearby; and the lovers' drawing etched onto a tree trunk representing their eternal bond. As we gaze upon this evocative artwork, we are reminded of the timeless themes it explores – love's power to both unite and divide, tragedy born out of miscommunication, and ultimately, sacrifice for one's true love. It serves as a poignant reminder that even in moments of despair or separation, love remains an indomitable force that transcends time itself.
