拍品專文

The watercolour seems to be one of a group that Burne-Jones made when he was staying with Spencer Stanhope at Cobham in June 1863. Others, including two in the Birmingham Art Gallery, were included in the Arts Council's Burne-Jones Exhibition, 1975-6, nos. 48 and 246-7. They relate to such paintings of the period as The Merciful Knight (Birmingham) and Green Summer (private collection).
