Information
Drawings, such as 'Goblin Wrestler', were produced many times by Burne-Jones from his early childhood. He did not begin creating these images on a larger scale until the mid-to-late 1860s, after he had children. These humourous drawings were intended for children, but also amused him.
- Purchased, 1980.
