EDITORS COMMENTS
This woodcut print, titled "Psyche rushing out of Palace" transports us to a mythical realm filled with love and enchantment. Created by the renowned artist Sir Edward Burne-Jones in 1866, this intricate artwork was designed for The Tale of Cupid & Psyche. The delicate lines and expert craftsmanship are evident in every detail of this 10.1x7.6 cm print. In this scene, we witness the pivotal moment when Psyche, a mortal woman, bravely escapes her opulent palace. With determination etched on her profiled face, she rushes forward as if driven by an unseen force. Her flowing garments and elegantly positioned wings suggest that she is no ordinary woman but rather a divine creature caught between two worlds. The presence of Cupid, the god of love himself depicted as an angelic figure with majestic wings, adds to the ethereal atmosphere surrounding Psyche's escape. This woodcut captures the essence of their mythological tale—a quest for love against all odds. Rendered in monochrome shades that evoke a sense of timelessness and classical beauty, this pre-Raphaelite masterpiece invites viewers to immerse themselves in its rich symbolism and narrative depth. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' collaboration with Fine Art Finder, admirers can now bring home this exquisite piece from their private collection without restriction or commercial use limitations. Let your imagination take flight as you explore the world where gods and mortals intertwine through artistry at its finest.
