The Construction of the Temple - Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones
The poetic monumentality of The Building of the Temple by Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones
The Composition of The Building of the Temple unfolds in a solemn scene where allegorical figures and architecture respond to each other in a rich palette of ochre tones, deep blues, and patinated golds. The fineness of the line and the delicate use of light create an atmosphere both mystical and contemplative, where each character seems frozen in a ritual of creation. The balance between ornamental detail and sculptural simplicity gives the work a meditative presence — a visual tribute to Pre-Raphaelite craftsmanship applied to symbolic themes. This art print of The Building of the Temple restores the chromatic depth and subtlety of the original drawing.
Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones, master of Pre-Raphaelitism and visual poetry
Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones is among the major figures of the English Pre-Raphaelite movement, influenced by medieval art, Arthurian legends, and the Renaissance. His approach favors elegant lines, stylization of characters, and a lyrical sensitivity that influenced decoration and graphic arts of the late 19th century. Through his collaborations with craft and stained glass workshops, Burne-Jones helped renew the taste for narrative and sacred ornamentation.
