Astrologia - Profile Study of Augusta Jones1865 Accession number: 1904P202 Red chalk over pencil on paper. Width: 350 mm Height: 483 mm InformationThis is a study of an early favourite model of Burne-Jones in the mid-1860s, Augusta Jones. Because it is in left profile, it is perhaps an early study of her made in preparation for 'Astrologia', a gouache of 1865 now in a private collection. She was also the model for Princess Sabra in the first oil painting of the St George Series, 'The Princess in the Garden' (1866, Musee d'Orsay, Paris).
