About this artwork

This late 19th-century English textile by William Morris is a large-scale design of exotic flowers on curving stems and leaves. The big flowerheads suggest tree-peonies and lotus, painted in pink, red, yellow and white and defined by brown outlines. Behind them lies a dark greenish-blue ground, worked with a fine, small-scale pattern of scrolling stems, leaves and flowers that fills the whole background. The contrast between bold blooms and delicate detail gives the design both presence and depth. Morris was a leading figure in the British Arts and Crafts movement and helped revive traditional British textile arts.

On your wall: The deep blue-green ground and rich floral colours suit a living room, dining room or bedroom, especially where you want a warm, traditional or botanical feel.

About William Morris

William Morris was an English designer, poet, artist and writer, closely linked with the British Arts and Crafts movement. He played a major part in reviving traditional British textile arts and the methods behind them. His writing helped shape modern fantasy, and he also campaigned for socialism in Britain towards the end of the nineteenth century.
