EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Kelmscott Chaucer, a literary masterpiece bound by the renowned artist William Morris in 1896. The photograph captures the cover of The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer, an iconic publication illustrated by Edward Burne-Jones and published by Morris' Kelmscott Press. The image transports us back to the Arts and Crafts movement of the early 20th century, where intricate decorative arts flourished. This special binding represents a fusion of medieval inspiration with Victorian aesthetics, reflecting Morris' passion for reviving traditional craftsmanship. The Kelmscott Chaucer is not only a testament to Morris' exceptional bookbinding skills but also serves as a historical artifact from the late 19th century. Its monochrome presentation adds an air of elegance and timelessness to this piece. Geoffrey Chaucer's influential writings come alive through Burne-Jones' illustrations within its pages. This collaboration between literary genius and artistic mastery creates a harmonious blend that resonates with lovers of literature even today. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones' remarkable talent in capturing medieval themes with his brushstrokes. His contribution to this edition elevates it beyond mere words on paper, making it an immersive visual experience. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into history - both literary and artistic - showcasing the brilliance of William Morris, Geoffrey Chaucer's timeless words, and Sir Edward Coley
