More about this artwork

The painting "Troy Triptych - Study Of Fame Overthrowing Fortune" by Edward Burne-Jones portrays a compelling allegorical scene. In this artwork, the main figure, representing Fame, is depicted as a powerful and muscular male blowing into a large trumpet. This trumpet emits a swirling pattern, symbolizing the spreading influence or the voice of Fame. Fame's strong physique and intent expression emphasize the force and impact that fame can have.In stark contrast, at the foot of Fame, lies a figure representing Fortune. This figure is shown reclining, seemingly overthrown or subdued, her face bearing an expression of serene resignation. She is draped in flowing garments, enhancing her appearance as passive and defeated.The setting and other elements in the painting, like lush green leaves framing the scene and a wooden wheel (part of Fortune's traditional iconography), further accentuate the central theme. The wheel suggests the changing nature of fortune, which can be at high or low positions, reflecting the ups and downs in the wheel of fate.Burne-Jones, a Pre-Raphaelite artist, uses his characteristic detailed and impactful style to explore themes of mythology and allegory, inviting viewers to ponder the dynamic relationship between fame and fortune, highlighting how fleeting and unpredictable luck and success can be when contrasted with the enduring shout of fame. This painting uses visual metaphor and classical symbolism to communicate complex societal truths regarding ambition, legacy, and chance.

Edward Burne Jones
All Artworks

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.
