More about this artwork

The painting "Golden Greeting" from Edward Burne-Jones' "The Flower Book" captures a poetic and somewhat ethereal scene within a circular frame. At the heart of this work is a figure, elegantly clothed in a flowing dark gown with a hint of blue sheen, and a distinct gold hat that seems to gleam with light. The figure is engaged in a gentle and intimate act of waving a large, translucent scarf or veil, which gracefully encircles them, catching the light as it flows.The setting of the painting is outdoors, as indicated by the background that softly brims with shades of green and hints of colored flowers, suggesting a garden or a meadow. This environment basks in ample daylight, contributing to the luminous quality of the scene. The golden hues dominant in the foreground not only highlight the title's reference to gold but also create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. This might be symbolic, perhaps alluding to the joy of greeting or the beauty of a simple yet profound moment of connection with the natural surroundings.The artwork, framed in a round format, draws the viewer's focus inward, emphasizing the central figure and the fluid motion of the scarf. This style can be reflective of Burne-Jones' pre-Raphaelite leanings, focusing on beauty, detailed execution, and a certain timeless, romantic quality that pervades his work.

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.
