1860 -1898 · Pre-Raphaelite myth, love and dream
Burne-Jones transforms the story of Cupid and Psyche into a decorative dream: elongated figures, silent gardens and suspended gestures tell of love, trial and reunion.
Edward Burne-Jones returns to the myth of Cupid and Psyche in paintings, drawings and decorative ensembles related to his work with William Morris. Inspired by ancient stories and their rewritings, he favors spectacular action less than moments of waiting, separation or recognition. Psyche crosses palaces, gardens and trials in spaces where plants, fabrics and architecture form a continuous surface. Cupid can be presence, absence or invisible force that drives the story. Cupid can be presence, absence or invisible force that drives the story. Cupid can be presence, absence or invisible force that drives the story. The green murals and series demonstrate his taste for narrative repetition, close to stained glass and tapestry. The myth thus becomes a Victorian meditation on desire, confidence and inner transformation. The selection "Cupid and Psyche at Edward Burne-Jones" notably compares The Marriage of Psyche and Cupid's Hunting Fields. His reading favors light.
Burne-Jones suspends the myth on the verge of awakening: love advances through silence, waiting and metamorphosis.
