In 1872, Zambaco left London to stay in Paris for a while, during which time both Burne-Jones and Murray had visited her (see letters in Harry R Ransom Humanities Research Center, University of Texas at Austin). On a number of occasions Burne-Jones had asked Murray to make images both of and for Zambaco. This may be one of them, especially since it bears no likeness to any other drawings extant by Burne-Jones of Zambaco, neither at this time, before or after. It has been dated as 1872 because Zambaco was in Paris during the late spring through the summer, and returned to London in the autumn.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Modern Decorative Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41886214094884,"sku":"7785","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/2778\/0388\/files\/7785-1.jpg?v=1728572693","url":"https:\/\/moderndecorative.com\/pt\/products\/portrait-pencil-sketch","provider":"Modern Decorative","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
