A fictional story that could have inspired the 1884 Edward Burne-Jones painting titled "King Cophetua and the Beggar Maid." THE BEGGAR MAID opens with a title that tells us that painter Sir Edward Burne-Jones was one of the foremost artists of his time, that he was born in Birmingham, England on August 28, 1833, died in London June 17, 1898, and that "King Cophetua and the Beggar Maid," "perhaps his finest work." was completed in 1884. It adds that it now hangs in the Tate Gallery, London. A later title tells us that his "kindness of heart and unfailing sympathy earned him the jocular nickname - The Wolf."~The girl has the responsibility of caring for a sickly older brother but the artist persuades her to sit for him. He then tells the Earl "...you shall be the King" in my painting. The Earl agrees and work begins, the Earl posing as King Cophetua and the orphan girl as the titular beggar maid. The two start to fall in love and the artist is soon faced with the girl’s brother and his friend who complain that "people are talking." We see the Earl kiss the maid in the woods and later she tells her brother that the Earl loves her. Shocked enough to snap a string in his violin, he tells her, "This is madness...you must not see him again." Later, looking out of the cottage window, the brother sees them embrace and suffers a stroke, smashing the window with his violin in the process. A doctor warns that a second stroke could prove fatal and the girl tells the Earl that she cannot see him again. He answers that he will wait for her to send for him.~Later the artist comes upon the brother, a painter himself and now in good health, and invites him to come to watch him working in his studio. The brother accepts. Once the brother and his friend are in the studio, with the girl attired as the beggar maid, the artist shows them Tennyson’s poem. The brother and his friend fear that the difference in their social stations dooms the match between Earl and maid but seem less apprehensive after reading Tennyson’s lines. The Earl appears, costumed as the king, and the artist is able to complete his masterpiece. The last shot is of a remarkably faithful reproduction of the painting, "King Cophetua and the Beggar Maid." <25mn>
