Width: 240 mm Height: 322 mm InformationA single photogravure, from a leather bound portfolio of 91 photogravures of original paintings. The folio is signed by Edward Burne-Jones' son, Philip. It is one of an edition 200.The 1871 painting from which this photogravure was taken is from is in the collection of the Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University. The original watercolourwas painted in 1871 (now in the Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University) and was presented to painter Marie Spartali on her marriage to William J Stillman. A second version was produced in 1873, now in a Private Collection, which is attributed to Burne-Jones, but letters in the Harry R Ransom Research Center at the University of Austin, Texas, reveal this to be primarily done by Charles Fairfax Murray on Burne-Jones's request.
