“I mean by a picture, a beautiful romantic dream of something that never was, never will be—in a better light than any light that ever shone—in a land no one can define or remember, only desire—and the forms are divinely beautiful.”The quote is from Sir Edward Burne-Jones. His painting "Love Among the Ruins" (1894) is in the collection of the Wightwick Manor in Wolverhampton, link.
