Painting Description
"The Council Chamber" is one of a series of tapestries designed by the prominent Pre-Raphaelite artist Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones and woven by Morris & Co., the influential arts and crafts firm founded by William Morris. This particular work is part of the larger "The Quest for the Holy Grail" series, which was originally commissioned by William Knox D'Arcy for his dining room at Stanmore Hall. The series was inspired by the medieval legend of King Arthur and the quest for the Holy Grail, a popular subject among the Pre-Raphaelites, who were known for their fascination with chivalric and romantic themes.
"The Council Chamber" depicts a pivotal moment in the Arthurian legend when the Knights of the Round Table convene to discuss the quest for the Holy Grail. The tapestry is characterized by its intricate detail, rich color palette, and the use of medieval iconography, which was typical of Burne-Jones's style. The composition features the knights in solemn discussion, emphasizing the gravity of their undertaking, and is filled with symbolic elements that reflect the spiritual and chivalric ideals of the quest.
Completed in the late 19th century, "The Council Chamber" exemplifies the collaborative nature of the arts and crafts movement, with Burne-Jones providing the design and Morris & Co. executing the weaving. The tapestry is now housed at Buscot Park, a National Trust property in Oxfordshire, England, where it is displayed as part of the property's notable art collection. The work remains an important example of Burne-Jones's contribution to the revival of tapestry weaving in Victorian Britain and is a testament to the enduring appeal of Arthurian legends in British art and culture.
