A beautiful visual reference of William Morris’s extensive range of textile and wallpaper designs, drawn from the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.
William Morris (1834–1896) was a pioneer of the Arts and Crafts Movement and one of the most influential designers of all time. This extensively illustrated sourcebook brings together nearly 400 of William Morris’s ingenious textile and wallpaper patterns, arranged decade by decade, while offering a fascinating overview of Morris’s work and a compelling glimpse into his life. Featured are famous designs such as Trellis (1862), Honeysuckle (1876) and Strawberry Thief (1883), alongside lesser-known patterns by Morris and Morris & Co. designers including May Morris, Kate Faulkner and John Henry Dearle. This invaluable visual reference will inspire and inform designers, illustrators and Morris aficionados everywhere, as well as anyone interested in visual and material culture.
