"The Legend of the Briar Rose" is a series of paintings created by the British artist Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones between 1885 and 1890. This collection is one of Burne-Jones's most celebrated works and is based on the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale, specifically drawing inspiration from Alfred Tennyson's poem "The Day-Dream." The series consists of four major panels, each depicting a different scene from the story, and is renowned for its intricate detail, rich color palette, and the artist's characteristic Pre-Raphaelite style.

Burne-Jones's interpretation of the Sleeping Beauty tale is both romantic and melancholic, capturing the timelessness and stillness of the enchanted sleep. The four main panels are titled "The Briar Wood," "The Council Chamber," "The Garden Court," and "The Rose Bower." Each panel is accompanied by a smaller predella, which provides additional narrative context and enhances the storytelling aspect of the series. The paintings are notable for their dreamlike quality and the seamless integration of figures with their lush, natural surroundings.

The series was first exhibited at Agnew's Gallery in London in 1890 and received widespread acclaim for its beauty and technical mastery. The paintings were later purchased by Alexander Henderson, 1st Baron Faringdon, and are now housed at Buscot Park in Oxfordshire, England. "The Legend of the Briar Rose" exemplifies Burne-Jones's dedication to the ideals of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, emphasizing medieval themes, meticulous craftsmanship, and a deep sense of narrative.

Burne-Jones's work on this series reflects his fascination with myth and legend, as well as his ability to convey emotion and atmosphere through his art. "The Legend of the Briar Rose" remains a significant achievement in 19th-century British art and continues to be admired for its poetic beauty and artistic innovation.
