The Beguiling of Merlin
Edward Coley Burne-Jones
Sir Edward Burne-Jones was an English painter and designer closely associated with the Pre-Raphaelite style. Renowned for his romantic, dreamlike works inspired by mythology, medieval legends, and literature, he became one of the leading figures of the Aesthetic Movement and helped shape the revival of decorative and symbolic art in Victorian Britain.
Edward Coley Burne-Jones created The Beguiling of Merlin in 1874. It is now part of the collection at Lady Lever Art Gallery in United Kingdom.
