EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1887, as we witness the artistic brilliance of Edward Coley Burne-Jones. The piece titled "Melchior" showcases the artist's mastery of coloured chalks and gold accents, bringing to life a mesmerizing image that measures 33x24.1 cm. The focal point of the artwork is a soldier adorned in magnificent armor, wielding a sword with confidence and strength. His helmet and chain mail shimmer under the golden light, adding an air of regality to his presence. A crown rests atop his head, symbolizing his noble status. Burne-Jones skillfully captures a moment of adoration in this scene as our soldier kneels before something or someone unseen. With a censer held high above him, he pays homage with reverence and devotion. This work belongs to the Pre-Raphaelite movement which sought inspiration from medieval art and literature. Burne-Jones' attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his sketch-like technique, creating an ethereal atmosphere that transports us into another realm. As we admire this stunning portrayal of Melchior - one of the three Magi who visited baby Jesus - we cannot help but be captivated by its beauty and historical significance. This print serves as a reminder not only of Burne-Jones' immense talent but also highlights how art has the power to transport us through time and evoke deep emotions within us.
