‎Edward Burne-Jones is widely regarded as one of the great British artists, and the only Pre-Raphaelite to achieve world-wide recognition through the elusive mythic language he developed across a range of media. Accompanying a major exhibition of Burne-Jones's work at Tate Britain, this beautifully-designed book looks at what was distinctive about Burne-Jones's art, and charts the course through which he emerged from being an outsider, to being revered as one of the great artists of the European fin de siecle. It shows how he maintained his vision through meticulous attention to craftsmanship and the repetition of key motifs. It examines the extraordinary combination of flattening and illusionistic effects in Burne-Jones's work, the artist's preoccupation with romance and horror, and the emphasis he placed on the potential of physical and symbolic objects within an image to simultaneously unlock and obfuscate meaning. Illustrated works show how Burne-Jones's highly subjective approach to storytelling resulted in a paradoxical combination of seriality and stasis, making the image unsettling in narrative and emotional terms. The essentially hermetic aspect of Burne-Jones' art will be used to foreground the challenge it presented to contemporary social and cultural values both within Britain and beyond. Large scale works made famous through public exhibition will foreground the impact Burne- Jones made on the continent, influencing the direction of pan-European Symbolism. Three essays examine Burne-Jones as an intellectual (his influences), as an artist (his techniques), and his legacy. Six section introductions, following the structure of the exhibition, look at in turn The Making of an Artist, Draughtmanship and Design, Burne-Jones' Public Exhibitions, Portraiture, Series Paintings, Art for the People. With contributions by Elizabeth Prettejohn, Jason Rosenfeld, Colin Cruise, Charlotte Gere and Suzanne Fagence Cooper.‎

‎" J'entends par tableau un beau r ve romantique de quelque chose qui n'a jamais exist et n'existera jamais, dans une lumi re plus belle que toutes celles qui ont jamais brill , dans un lieu que personne ne peut d finir ou se rappeler, seulement d sirer. " Ainsi Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898), l'un des artistes anglais les plus importants du XIXe si cle apr s Turner et Constable, r sumait-il sont art. Form aupr s de Gabriel Rossetti et prot g de John Ruskin, il est l'auteur d'une ?uvre consid rable. Du pr rapha lisme auquel il se rattacha dans les premi res ann es de sa carri re au symbolisme dont il fut l'un des grands pr curseurs, en passant par ses multiples collaborations avec William Morris dans le domaine des arts d coratifs, il d veloppa un univers esth tique fascinant, nourri de l gendes m di vales et de r cits mythologiques, exclusivement tourn vers l'imaginaire. Ce catalogue, seul ouvrage de r f rence sur Burne-Jones en fran ais, accompagne la grande r trospective organis e au Metropolitan Museum of Art New York, aux Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery et au mus e d'Orsay. Il montrera quel point, un si cle apr s sa disparition, l'artiste repr sente de nouveau pour le regard contemporain la quintessence de la sophistication qui caract risa la fin de la p riode victorienne.‎
