Pygmalion and the Image - The Soul Attains, 1878 - A Captivating Depiction of Mythology by Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this mesmerizing oil painting from 19th-century artist Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones, we are transported into the realm of Greek mythology. Titled "Pygmalion and the Image - The Soul Attains" this artwork is part of a series of four captivating paintings. The scene unfolds with Pygmalion, a renowned sculptor from ancient Greece, kneeling before his own creation – a stunningly lifelike statue of a woman. With meticulous attention to detail, Burne-Jones captures every nuance in color and form as he brings this mythological tale to life on canvas. The full-length figures dominate the composition, showcasing both male and female characters in their nakedness. This deliberate choice emphasizes vulnerability and raw emotion within the narrative. As Pygmalion gazes upon his masterpiece with adoration and longing, we witness an extraordinary moment where art transcends reality. Burne-Jones' artistic style aligns with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood movement that sought inspiration from medieval art forms while incorporating vibrant colors and intricate details. His mastery shines through in every brushstroke, creating an ethereal atmosphere that transports viewers back to ancient times. This remarkable piece can be found at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery in Britain under the care of Birmingham Museums Trust. It stands as a testament to
