Edward Burne-Jones's "Orpheus and his Lute" is a circular painting featuring Orpheus, a figure from Greek mythology, playing a lyre. The painting is dominated by a brown and white color palette with hints of gold accents. The white highlights the figure of Orpheus and the golden accents of the lyre, creating a sense of light and contrast against the dark background. The background itself is textured, with flowing lines reminiscent of clouds. The image is likely a study for a larger artwork or a decorative piece, created by the Pre-Raphaelite artist Burne-Jones, known for his elaborate and mystical scenes.
