The Beguiling of Merlin by Burne-Jones |
|
|
|
This
painting is taken from the Arthurian Legends the painter loved. It is a most
beautiful picture. The model for Nimue was Maria Zambaco, with whom the artist
had a passionate, but doomed affair in the 1870s. The title is most descriptive,
as the painting beguiles the viewer to this day. Buy print on canvas from Illusions Gallery Buy this poster from AllPosters.com Buy print from Easyart (UK) |
