Original Description
Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones’s Costume design for Morgan le Fay in J. Comyns Carr’s play ‘King Arthur’ embodies the romantic medievalism and Pre-Raphaelite elegance that defined his oeuvre. Created in the late 19th century for a theatrical production, this exquisite watercolor and gouache painting captures the enchantress Morgan le Fay draped in flowing, ethereal fabrics adorned with intricate gold embellishments. Burne-Jones’s meticulous attention to detail, from the delicate embroidery to the elongated figures, reflects his adherence to the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood’s ideals of beauty, symbolism, and craftsmanship. The composition exudes an otherworldly allure, blending Arthurian legend with a dreamlike aesthetic characteristic of the Aesthetic Movement. Historically significant, this work exemplifies the intersection of fine art and theatrical design, showcasing Burne-Jones’s mastery in translating narrative into visual splendor—an enduring testament to his influence on both Victorian and later decorative arts.
For an elegant home or office space, this artwork would complement a room with rich, moody tones—think deep emerald greens, velvety blues, or warm burgundies—enhancing its medieval mystique. Framed in an ornate gold or aged bronze to echo its gilded details, it would suit a library, lounge, or executive office with classic or gothic-inspired furnishings. Pair it with luxurious textures like velvet drapery or carved wood furniture to amplify its Pre-Raphaelite grandeur. Its vertical composition suggests placement above a mantelpiece or beside floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, where its intricate details can be admired up close. Alternatively, juxtapose it against minimalist decor for a striking contrast between antique fantasy and modern simplicity. Lighting with soft, warm hues will accentuate its atmospheric glow, ensuring Morgan le Fay’s regal presence becomes the room’s enchanting focal point.
