Charles Fairfax Murray

Personally I think we under rate Charles Fairfax Murray (1849-1919) as a mere assistant to Burne-Jones,but though some of his works are derivative I love these of Lisa Stillman, c. 1880.

Jane and the Wombat

On September 10, 1869, Dante Gabriel Rossetti sketches the picture above, calling it: Parted Love; or, The Wombat. A day later, he wrote the following letter to his lover, Jane Morris (nee Burden), the wife of his friend and student, William Morris:

What do you think? I have got a Wombat at Chelsea, come the other day, whose portraits (by Dunn) I enclose.

Your affectionate,
D. Gabriel. R

PS:

Oh! how the family affections combat
Within this heart; and each hour flings a bomb at
my burning soul; neither from owl nor from bat
can peace be gained, until I clasp my Wombat!

Laudes Beatae Mariae Virginis, 1896.

Inscription by Edward Burne-Jones to his son-in-law, John William Mackail (1859-1945).

Wombat Fridays

Wombat Fridays to you. (The lovely Kirsty Stonell Walker gives a good explanation of it here:http://fannycornforth.blogspot.ca/2013/03/wombat-friday.html) Basically you get a stuffed wombat and something involving the Pre-Raphaelites and possibly some cake, and then you take a picture and post it. On a Friday. It’s frivolous, wonderful, Pre-Raphaelite fun. I will give you a highly intelligent post about what wombats actually have to do with the Pre-Raphaelites. Later. For now, here is my wombat, Bottom, with a crocheted Effie Gray and a copy of John Millais’ My Second Sermon that I found for a dollar at a second-hand shop. There you go.
