"Study for Danaë in 'Danaë and the Brazen Tower'" is a preparatory work by the eminent Pre-Raphaelite artist Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones. This study is part of the artist's creative process for his larger work, "Danaë and the Brazen Tower," which delves into the mythological narrative of Danaë, a figure from Greek mythology who was the mother of the hero Perseus by Zeus. The larger piece is one of Burne-Jones's explorations of classical themes, rendered with the intricate detail and rich symbolism characteristic of the Pre-Raphaelite movement.

The study captures the figure of Danaë, often depicted at the moment of Zeus's approach, which in mythology was said to be in the form of a golden shower. Burne-Jones's rendition is noted for its ethereal quality and the emotional depth he imparts to his subject. The work reflects the artist's fascination with myth and legend, as well as his interest in exploring the female form and the theme of innocence confronted by power.

As a study, this piece would have served as a means for Burne-Jones to refine his vision for the final painting, allowing him to experiment with composition, light, and form. Such preparatory works are invaluable for understanding the artist's method and the evolution of his ideas from conception to completion. The study is an example of the meticulous planning that went into Burne-Jones's larger compositions, which often involved multiple preparatory sketches and studies.

Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones (1833–1898) was a British artist and designer closely associated with the later phase of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and with the aesthetic movement. His work, known for its sensuousness and medieval revivalism, has been influential in the development of European symbolism. As such, "Study for Danaë in 'Danaë and the Brazen Tower'" is a significant piece that contributes to the understanding of Burne-Jones's oeuvre and the broader context of 19th-century British art.
