Inhoudsopgave: WILLIAM MORRIS changed the face of British art forever. From his early Pre-Raphaelite period to the Arts and Crafts Movement of late-Victorian times, he mastered every artistic medium he chose. Adept at painting and drawing, Morris moved into the fields of textile, wallpaper, stained glass and book design as well as printing and furniture making. With a comprehensive introduction, Essential Morris looks in detail at all aspects of the art of William Morris and his contemporaries, with detailed commentary on 120 of their works. Some of these are considered their most important pieces; others may be less well-known, but they are equally essential to the artistic philosophy of Morris and his fellow craftsmen.
