  • Sir Edward Burne-Jones - Sir Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898) was an English artist and designer associated with the Pre-Raphaelite movement. He was born in 1833 and began his career as an apprentice to the artist and designer William Morris. He went on to become a leading member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group of artists who sought to revive the techniques and styles of the early Renaissance.

    Burne-Jones is best known for his paintings, which often featured romantic and mythological themes, as well as his stained glass designs. He was also a highly skilled designer of furniture and textiles, and was involved in the decorative arts movement of the late 19th century. His work was highly influential and was a major inspiration to the Arts and Crafts movement. He died in 1898.
