EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fortune, 19th century (1900)" takes us back to the artistic world of Victorian England. Created by an unknown artist and featuring the renowned Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones, this piece showcases the beauty and depth of allegorical art in the late 19th century. The image portrays a stunning female figure, representing Fortune herself. Dressed in vibrant colors that evoke a sense of opulence and mystery, she stands before a magnificent wheel symbolizing life's unpredictable nature. This metaphorical wheel of fortune serves as a reminder that fate can both elevate and humble us. The attention to detail is remarkable, showcasing the skillful craftsmanship prevalent during this artistic era. The woman's delicate features are meticulously captured, revealing her contemplative expression as she gazes into the distance. The use of color adds another layer of symbolism, with each hue carefully chosen to convey different aspects of fortune's influence on our lives.
