EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Untitled, 1866" showcases the artistic collaboration between two renowned figures of the Pre-Raphaelite movement: Sir Edward Burne-Jones and William Morris. The woodcut design was created by Burne-Jones for the enchanting tale of Cupid & Psyche. In this scene, we are transported to a celestial realm where love and music intertwine. Full-length figures of Cupid and Psyche take center stage, surrounded by a cloud-like backdrop that adds an ethereal touch to the composition. Cupid gracefully plays his harp while Psyche skillfully handles her violin, creating a harmonious melody that resonates throughout the scene. The classical mythology theme is further enhanced by various instruments scattered around them – a lute and other stringed instruments symbolizing their quest for love. This monochrome masterpiece captures not only their musical prowess but also their emotional connection as they navigate through trials in pursuit of eternal love. The intricate details in this woodcut exemplify the meticulous craftsmanship associated with both Burne-Jones and Morris. Their collaboration brings forth a sense of timeless beauty that transports viewers into a mythical world filled with romance, celebration, and divine intervention. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of the enduring power of art to transport us beyond reality's confines into realms where imagination reigns supreme.
