Lot Essay

This drawing relates to J.W. McKail’s 1892 project , which was published by the Kelmscott Press. Mackail, who was Burne-Jones’s son-in-law, planned upwards of 200 illustrations for the book, although they were never completed and the book was published without images. 25 of the designs which were sufficiently advanced were reproduced as woodcuts by Robert Catterson-Smith and published by Longman’s in 1902. This study does not relate to one of the published designs.
