Cupids Hunting Fields, 1885
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones is a captivating artwork that transports viewers to the enchanting realm of myth and love. This exquisite print showcases the artist's mastery in capturing intricate details and evoking emotions through his brushstrokes. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness a group of winged figures engaged in an ethereal hunt. Blindfolded cupids armed with bows and arrows navigate the golden-hued landscape, their skin glowing against the blue backdrop. The artist's use of gouache with watercolour and gold and silver paints on ivory wove paper laid down on linen canvas adds depth and richness to every stroke. Burne-Jones' work reflects his affiliation with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, as he seamlessly blends elements from classical mythology with Victorian aesthetics. The composition exudes both gracefulness and tension, as if frozen in time during a momentous battle or romantic pursuit. This piece not only showcases Burne-Jones' technical skill but also offers a glimpse into British art history during the 19th century. It stands as a testament to his contribution to artistic innovation while paying homage to traditional artistic styles. As we gaze upon "Cupids Hunting Fields" we are transported into an otherworldly realm where beauty intertwines with warlike imagery. It serves as a reminder of our eternal fascination with love, desire, and human connection – themes that have captivated artists throughout centuries.
