Saint George by Edward Burne-Jones, 1873-1877, oil on canvas - Wadsworth Atheneum - Hartford, CT - DSC05537

Edward Burne-Jones (1833–1898) was an one of the leading painters and designers of late 19th-century England, whose romantic paintings using medieval imagery were among the last manifestations of the Pre-Raphaelite style. More long-lasting is his influence as a pioneer of the revival of the ideal of the “artist-craftsman,” so influential to the development of 20th-century industrial design.
