This painting by Edward Burne-Jones depicts three female Christian saints: St Barbara, St Dorothy, and St Agnes. The Pre-Raphaelite artist was a known figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement, and this work is a fine example of his highly detailed and symbolic style. The figures are elegantly dressed in flowing robes, set against a background of a patterned floor and a lush green landscape. Their attire and symbolic attributes clearly identify them as saints, with St Barbara holding a sword, St Dorothy carrying a crown of roses, and St Agnes holding a lamb. The painting is characterized by rich colors, flowing lines, and a sense of ethereal beauty.
