Specialist note

Burne-Jones's Days of Creation, were executed between 1875-76; six panels are now in the Fogg Museum, Harvard University. The present drawing was part of a group of material from Burne-Jones's studio which included work by his assistants. However, the quality of this drawing suggests that it is by Burne-Jones.
