Orpheus facing torment: the narrative power of Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones
In this dramatic composition, Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones orchestrates a scene where the silhouette of Orpheus stands out against a turbulent background, bathed in dark tones and golden touches. The Furies, with sinuous gestures and vehement faces, create a circular movement that concentrates emotion and tragic tension. The palette blends deep ochres, faded greens, and light accents that highlight the finesse of the drawing and the delicacy of the modeling. This art print of Orpheus pursued by Furies captures the narrative depth and subtle pictorial elegance of the Pre-Raphaelite master.

Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones, master of the Pre-Raphaelite movement
English artist associated with the Pre-Raphaelite movement, Burne‑Jones dedicated his work to reinterpreting myths and legends through a refined medieval aesthetic. Influenced by William Morris and a love of linear drawing, he favored the grace of elongated silhouettes, ornamental richness, and a dreamlike atmosphere. His major works revisit Arthurian and ancient imagery with a symbolist sensitivity that marked the late 19th century. This canvas reflects his narrative approach: each figure and drape contributes to a visual dramaturgy designed to evoke emotion and provoke thought.
