Thanks for letting us know of this Stephanie. I will definitely check out Fulham Palace when these works go on show. I’ve seen some of these works before in Fulham Library about ten years ago.

Burne Jones’ pencil studies and portraits are beautiful works of art in their own right. ‘Haunting’ is the only way I can describe them.
