In 1896, William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones published an illustrated edition of Geoffrey Chaucer's Works, one of the greatest British storytellers. This illustration depicts a passionate kiss between Troilus and Criseyde, a pair of tragic lovers whose story ended abruptly during the siege of Troy.
