More about this artwork

"Comes He Not?" from The Flower Book by Edward Burne-Jones is a captivating image that portrays a solitary and draped figure on a stone platform beside the sea. The figure, enveloped in a long, flowing dark garment and possibly cloaked in shadow or grief, seems to be gazing out at the vast sea, likely longing or waiting for someone who is yet to arrive.The setting is subdued with a minimalist but evocative background depicting the sea stretching across the horizon beneath a golden, streaky sky which might suggest either dawn or dusk, amplifying the mood of expectancy or perhaps melancholy.Interestingly, the use of the circle to frame the scene gives it a contained, focused feel, directing our attention solely on the figure and their emotional state. The red wavy element near the head could symbolize thoughts, emotions, or maybe even a lyrical aspect to the figure's thoughts.Overall, the artwork evokes a sense of poignant anticipation, questioning, and the unknown, conveyed through its compositional simplicity and emotional intensity.

Sir Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898) was a British designer and Victorian narrative painter. He was born in Birmingham to a picture-framer. He intended to become a minister and studied theology at Oxford. However, his life took a turn when he met William Morris. Together they formed The Brotherhood, a society worshipping the poets and architecture of the middle ages. They both worked together on several projects for Morris & Co. Burne-Jones designed tapestries, jewellery, sculptures, ceramics, furniture and stained glass for the company. His artworks truly captured the spirit of the nineteenth century and the Arts and Crafts movement. In recent decades his art has had a renaissance and become among the most expensive pre-raphaelite artworks to be sold at auction.
