Burne-Jones’s aims were ambitious; he manipulated the iconic and emblematic in pursuit of a superior art form. The Pygmalion subject lent a vehicle to illustrate his vision of the artist and the standard of ideal beauty to which such an artist could aspire. Using these subjects to express both aesthetic and spiritual beauty, he made an impact at home and abroad as a painter of spiritual transcendence who offered escape from the materialism of modern life.
