Publisher's Synopsis
The Beginning of the World is a book written by Edward Coley Burne-Jones in 1902. It is a collection of his original illustrations and poetry that depict the creation story from the book of Genesis. The book is divided into seven sections, each representing a day of creation. Burne-Jones' illustrations are intricate and detailed, featuring fantastical creatures and ethereal landscapes that capture the imagination. His poetry is equally evocative, describing the beauty and wonder of the natural world as it comes into being. The Beginning of the World is a unique and beautiful interpretation of the creation story, and a testament to Burne-Jones' artistic talent and creativity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
