The Soul Attains (Detail) Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones ( Birmingham, 28 August 1833 of - London, June 17 of 1898) was a artist and designer associated with the English Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, and largely responsible for attracting Pre-Raphaelites into the mainstream of British art and, in time, producing some of the most exquisite and beautiful works of art of the period. Burne-Jones was the son of a carver gilder Bennetts Hill, where a blue plaque commemorates his birth. His mother died six days after birth, and was raised by his father and a housekeeper unkind. He attended King Edward's School in Birmingham, and then studied theology at Exeter College, Oxford University . There he befriended the poet William Morris as a result of mutual interest in poetry and was influenced by John Ruskin . By this time discovered the work of Thomas Malory Le Morte d'Arthur which was to influence both their lives.
In 1855 he entered the workshop Rossetti, but developed his own style influenced by his travels to Italy with Ruskin and others. Intended to be a clergyman, but was influenced by Morris artist and designer. After Oxford, where he did not get any title, got very involved in the rebirth of art glass in England. In 1856
Burne-Jones became engaged to Georgiana MacDonald (1840 - 1920), one of the MacDonald sisters. Was studying to be Pintors , and was the sister of one of the old school friends of Burne-Jones. The couple married in 1860 , and then she was devoted to wood engraving and became a close friend of George Eliot . Another MacDonald sister married the artist Sir Edward Poynter, Alfred Baldwin third and was the mother of Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin , and there is a last sister was the mother of Rudyard Kipling . Kipling and Baldwin were, therefore, Burne-Jones's nephews.
In 1859 he traveled to Italy . was in Milan and Venice with the English painter John Ruskin .
In 1867 Burne-Jones and his wife settled in Fulham, London . William Morris later fell in love with Georgiana, but she refused. During the eighties the nineteenth century , Burne-Jones did not hold exhibitions, because they had been bitter attacks by the press, and an affair with his Greek model Maria Zambaco ended with her attempting suicide in public. Work

In 1877, he was persuaded to show eight oil paintings at the Grosvenor Gallery Gallery (new rival to the Royal Academy ). included Merlin's spell . It was the right time, and was taken as a herald and star of the new "Aesthetic Movement."
He influenced Italian art, as seen in The Mirror of Venus or The golden staircase . Burne-Jones was inspired by mythological themes, as seen in his series on the myth of Perseus Tempera (1875) or Atlas turned into stone. Also, and allegorical subjects welcomes historical legends. So Cophetua King and daughter of beggar (1884) is based on Alfred Tennyson text and succeeded in of Expo Paris 1889 of .
addition to painting, investigó las posibilidades de la artesanía , que incluían el diseño para decoraciones interiores, de azulejos de cerámica , joyería , tapices , alfombras, papel pintado, muebles, ilustración de libros (el Chaucer de Kelmscott Press en 1896 ), y vestimentas teatrales. Destacó en la elaboración de vidrieras sobre temas clásicos, como las realizadas para el Colegio de San Andrés de Bradfield. Posteriormente, realizó más vidrieras en colaboración con William Morris.

Distinciones e influencia


"David's Charge to Solomon" (1882), a stained glass window Edward Burne-Jones and William Morris , at Trinity Church in Boston , Massachusetts .
In 1881 received an honorary degree at Oxford. In 1890 he was elected member of the Royal Academy. In 1894 he was appointed knight . Devastated by the death of his friend William Morris, in 1896, his health declined rapidly to death on June 17, 1898. Six days later, the intervention of the Prince of Wales held a memorial service at Westminster Abbey . It was the first time an artist received such an honor. Burne-Jones was buried in Rottingdean, near Brighton , a place known for being the summer vacation family. It was outdated, because Modern Art and Abstract Expressionism was not until the mid nineteen-seventy that his work began to be reassessed and re-acclaimed.
Burne-Jones had a considerable influence on British painting, as seen in a large exhibition held in 1989 the Barbican Art Gallery in London. It published a book about it: John Christian, The Last Romantics , (1989). Burne-Jones was also very influential among French Symbolist painters from 1889. In fact, often regarded as the second generation Pre-Raphaelite painters, or directly as symbolist .
His work also inspired poetry of Swinburne - his work Poems & Ballads (1886 ) is dedicated to Burne-Jones.
His son Philip (1861 - 1926) was a successful portraitist. His daughter Margaret (1866 - 1953) is married John William Mackail (1850 - 1945), friend and biographer of William Morris, and Professor of Poetry at Oxford during the period 1911 - 1916.
The study assistant Burne-Jones, Charles Fairfax Murray, a race developed itself as a painter, quite successfully. He later became a collector and art dealer. Among 1903 and 1907 sold many works by Burne-Jones and the Pre-Raphaelites the Museum and Art Gallery Birmingham, at less than market value. The Museum and Art Gallery Birmingham now has the largest collection of works by Burne-Jones in the world including the huge watercolor Star of Bethlehem, commissioned by the Gallery in 1897 . The paintings had a strong influence on the young JRR Tolkien , which then grew in Birmingham. Burne-Jones
influenced the artists known as "Group of Birmingham, from the nineties of nineteenth century onwards.
