William Morris is the most influential British designer of the last 100 years and this collection combines Morris's writings with his famous designs for wallpaper, fabrics, tapestries, embroideries, carpets, books and stained glass. Through his own work and in his own words, the book traces the progress of William Morris, Pre-Raphaelite poet and architectural student, into designer, writer and pioneer socialist. This book is illustrated with color photographs of Morris's designs, woodblocks, fabrics, wallpapers and windows. Morris fabrics and wallpapers in museum collections have been photographed specially for this book and are accompanied by many of his original pencil and watercolor designs, including sketches, and preparatory works.
