Sir Philip William Burne-Jones, 2nd Baronet (1 October 1861 – 21 June 1926)[1] was a Victorian Era British aristocrat, whose life and professional career as a painter spanned into the Edwardian.

He was the first child of more famed British Pre-Raphaelite artist Sir Edward Burne-Jones and his wife Georgiana Macdonald, and a cousin of both author Rudyard Kipling and prime minister Stanley Baldwin.

His most famous work, The Vampire (1897), depicting a woman leaning over an unconscious man, was believed to have been modelled by the actress Mrs Patrick Campbell, with whom Burne-Jones had been associated romantically.

Philip visited the United States during 1902, where he was popular in fashionable society and contributed to the then-fashionable travelogue literary genre by publishing an account (Dollars and Democracy) of his time spent there.

In spite of holding these commonly held views, he was aware they were exaggerated by his conditioning, a reflection of where he grew up, how, and when: "When aversion to race is instinctive and deep-seated, it is a bit difficult to write fairly on the subject"; and repeatedly offered his regrets and commiseration over their difficult situation in America, stating it was a "real tragedy", for which "they deserve our profound sympathy".
