Edward Burne-Jones, born in 1833 in Birmingham and died in 1898 in London, was a British painter and designer closely associated with the later phase of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. His works, such as 'The Golden Stairs' and 'King Cophetua and the Beggar Maid,' are celebrated for their intricate detail, rich colors, and medieval themes. Burne-Jones's dedication to reviving the style and spirit of the Italian Renaissance, combined with his exploration of mythological and biblical narratives, has established him as a significant figure in 19th-century art, profoundly influencing the decorative arts and the development of the Symbolist movement.
