"The Legend of the Briar Rose: The Council Room" is one of a series of paintings by the British Pre-Raphaelite artist Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones, which depict scenes from the fairy tale of "Sleeping Beauty." Created in the late 19th century, this particular work focuses on the moment within the story where the councilors are shown spellbound by the enchantment, asleep in the room where they once deliberated the affairs of the kingdom.

Burne-Jones was known for his fascination with medieval themes and stories, and his "Briar Rose" series is a testament to his commitment to these interests. The series consists of four main panels: "The Briar Wood," "The Council Room," "The Garden Court," and "The Rose Bower," along with several additional panels that depict the slumbering figures of the palace inhabitants.

"The Council Room" is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and rich, vibrant colors, which were hallmarks of Burne-Jones's style. The painting is filled with symbolic elements and intricate patterns, which were influenced by his association with the Arts and Crafts Movement and his close collaboration with William Morris. The figures in "The Council Room" are draped in sumptuous garments, and the room is adorned with elaborate textiles and furnishings, creating a sense of timeless enchantment.

Burne-Jones's work on the "Briar Rose" series spanned several years, with the paintings being exhibited to great acclaim in the 1890s. "The Council Room," like the other panels in the series, was highly praised for its dreamlike quality and its embodiment of the Pre-Raphaelite ideal of beauty and romanticism. The series has been interpreted as an allegory of the transformative power of love and the enduring nature of art.

Today, "The Legend of the Briar Rose: The Council Room" is considered an important work in the oeuvre of Burne-Jones and a significant piece within the Pre-Raphaelite movement. It is held in high regard for its artistic merit and its ability to capture the imagination, transporting viewers to a world of myth and legend. The painting is part of the collection at the Buscot Park in Oxfordshire, England, where it remains on public display, enchanting visitors with its timeless narrative and exquisite craftsmanship.
