EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting 19th-century drawing, a mysterious subject is captured in a moment of quiet contemplation before a crackling fire. The artist, Edward Burne-Jones, has imbued the figure with an air of mystique and romance, possibly inspired by the mythological tales of Cupid's daughter. The delicate pen and pencil strokes bring to life the gentle curves of her face and form, as she gazes into the flames that dance before her.
The setting is one of warmth and intimacy, evoking feelings of comfort and security. The brazier at her feet suggests a connection to the forge or foundry, where metal was shaped and transformed through heat and fire. This may be more than just a coincidence - could this enigmatic woman be Cupid's daughter herself, born from his fiery passion?
Burne-Jones' masterful use of light and shadow creates an atmosphere both dreamlike and inviting. As we gaze upon this image, we are drawn into the world of myth and fantasy, where love stories unfold like embers glowing in the darkness.
