Meadow Sweet 1905

"Meadow Sweet", created in 1905 by Edward Burne-Jones, depicts a circular scene with a boat, a woman, a man, and a mountainous landscape. The Pre-Raphaelite artist, known for his symbolic and allegorical work, often used mythical and literary themes in his art. This artwork's circular frame, reminiscent of a medieval manuscript, adds to the dreamy, otherworldly quality of the scene, suggesting a tale of love, loss, or a journey through time.
