Morning Glories 1905

"Morning Glories" (1905) by Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898) is a circular painting depicting four angels with wings, flying across a landscape. The Pre-Raphaelite artist uses a muted palette of blues, browns, and grays to evoke a sense of serenity and spirituality. The angels, rendered with delicate brushstrokes, appear to be gracefully gliding through the air, suggesting a celestial journey. The painting's circular format and the use of a landscape backdrop create a sense of framing, drawing the viewer's attention to the ethereal figures at the center.
