EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork titled "Antonia, 1877" by Edward Coley Burne-Jones. Created using silverpoint and bodycolour on a grey prepared ground, this piece measures 32x15.2 cm and is currently housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. Burne-Jones, a prominent figure in the Pre-Raphaelite movement, skillfully captures the essence of femininity through his study of Antonia. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he portrays her full-length nude form with remarkable precision and sensitivity. The composition exudes elegance and grace as Antonia assumes a contrapposto pose – a classic stance that emphasizes naturalism and balance. Her nudity is depicted tastefully, highlighting her vulnerability while celebrating her beauty. Through this artwork, Burne-Jones invites viewers to appreciate both the physicality and emotional depth of his subject. The soft color palette against the grey background creates an ethereal atmosphere that further enhances Antonia's allure. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are reminded of the timeless power of art to capture fleeting moments and evoke profound emotions. Burne-Jones' "Antonia" continues to captivate audiences today with its exquisite craftsmanship and exploration of female beauty in Western art history.
