The Adoration of the Magi - Edward Burne-Jones

The Adoration of the Magi – Edward Burne-Jones

From: £2.00

Mary, seated in a rose-covered manger thatched with straw, holding baby Jesus.  To her left is Joseph, with a bundle of sticks and an axe at his feet.  Hovering to Mary’s right is an angel with brocade robes, flowers in her hair, and green wings, holding a glowing star.  The three kings have removed their crowns and may be offering them to Jesus along with their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.  The background is a dark woodland with a small pond which catches the star’s light.  Other spaces are filled in traditional tapestry style with flowers, especially Madonna lilies.  Burne-Jones designed this tapestry for Morris & Co.  He also made a painting of this scene with a different color scheme. (Pre-Raphaelite, 1887) This pattern is solidly stitched. Any color fabric may be used.
