Original Description
Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones’ The Wizard 2 (circa 1880s) immerses viewers in a spellbinding medieval reverie, characteristic of the artist’s Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood roots and later Aesthetic Movement influences. The painting depicts a mysterious, robed sorcerer engrossed in arcane studies, surrounded by celestial orbs and mystical symbols rendered in Burne-Jones’ signature ethereal style. Soft, diffused lighting bathes the scene in dreamlike ambiguity, while elongated figures and intricate patterns reflect his admiration for Botticelli and early Renaissance art. As part of his The Wizard series, this work exemplifies Burne-Jones’ fascination with Arthurian legends and allegorical themes, bridging Victorian romanticism and Symbolist abstraction. Considered a master of British Symbolism, his works profoundly influenced subsequent Art Nouveau designers—making The Wizard 2 not just a painting, but a portal to 19th-century artistic idealism.
For interiors, The Wizard 2’s rich symbolism and muted jewel tones (deep blues, ochres, and ivories) lend gravitas to studies or libraries. Its vertical composition suits narrow walls or alcoves, ideally paired with Gothic Revival furniture or Arts & Crafts woodwork to echo its medieval inspiration. Frame it in an ornate gilt or oxidized silver moulding to accentuate its mystic aura, and balance its darker palette with textured textiles like velvet or damask. In modern offices, juxtapose it against slate-gray walls for contrast, or place it beside bookshelves to create an intellectual yet whimsical vignette. A medium-sized reproduction (24x36 inches) ensures visibility without overwhelming smaller spaces. Its contemplative mood makes it ideal for spaces meant to inspire creativity or introspection—think writer’s nooks or executive lounges.
