Painting Description
"Cupid and Psyche" is a series of paintings by the British artist Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones, who was associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and later the Aesthetic movement. Created in the late 19th century, this series illustrates the story of Cupid and Psyche as told in "The Golden Ass" by Apuleius, a Latin novel from the 2nd century AD. The narrative, which is a tale of love, betrayal, and redemption, was a popular subject for artists and provided rich material for Burne-Jones's exploration of love and beauty, themes central to his artistic oeuvre.
The series consists of multiple works, often executed in different media, including large-scale paintings and smaller, detailed studies. Burne-Jones's interpretation is noted for its dreamlike quality and the meticulous attention to detail, characteristics that are emblematic of his style. His depiction of the mythological figures reflects the Pre-Raphaelite interest in classical themes and their revival of medieval and early Renaissance artistic principles, such as a focus on naturalism and complex symbolism.
Burne-Jones's "Cupid and Psyche" series is considered a significant contribution to the corpus of 19th-century British art, exemplifying the artist's craftsmanship and his ability to convey narrative through visual means. The works are held in various collections and have been exhibited in prominent galleries, contributing to the enduring interest in and study of Burne-Jones's art. The series not only highlights the artist's technical skill and aesthetic sensibilities but also offers insight into the Victorian fascination with mythological and literary themes.
