EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a set of sixteen tiles arranged in pairs, forming eight stunning illustrations of the beloved Briar Rose tale. Created by the talented artist Edward Coley Burne-Jones between 1862 and 1865, this ceramic masterpiece measures an impressive 131.6x40.7 cm and is proudly displayed at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, UK. The intricate details of these tiles are truly mesmerizing, depicting scenes from this enchanting folk tale with precision and artistry. The neo-gothic style combined with elements of the arts and crafts movement creates a visually striking composition that transports viewers into a world of knights, curses, and magic. Each tile tells a different part of the narrative as we follow along with Sleeping Beauty's journey through thorny forests and enchanted slumber. The ornate decoration adds to its Victorian gothic charm while William Morris's influence can be seen throughout. This print captures not only the beauty but also the depth of storytelling within each tile. It serves as a reminder that art has the power to transport us into fantastical realms where heroes rise against adversity and love conquers all. A true testament to Burne-Jones's talent and his ability to bring fairy tales to life through his exquisite craftsmanship.
