This pencil drawing of St Mary the Virgin is a study by renowned Pre-Raphaelite artist Edward Burne-Jones. Known for his detailed and symbolic works, Burne-Jones captures the figure of Mary in a flowing gown, with her hands clasped in prayer, against a plain background. Her head is encircled by a halo, indicating her holy status. The drawing is a testament to Burne-Jones's masterful use of line and shading to create a sense of volume and form. This sketch provides a glimpse into the artist's process and his fascination with religious themes.
