Morris - Holy Grail Verdure - 150X75cm Hand-Painted Art on Canvas
Art Name: Holy Grail Verdure
Artist: William Morris
William Morris (1834 - 1896) was a British textile designer, poet, novelist, translator, and socialist activist associated with the British Arts and Crafts Movement. He was a major contributor to the revival of traditional British textile arts and methods of production. His literary contributions helped to establish the modern fantasy genre, while he played a significant role propagating the early socialist movement in Britain.
In 1861, Morris founded the Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co decorative arts firm with Burne-Jones, Rossetti, Webb, and others, which became highly fashionable and much in demand. The firm profoundly influenced interior decoration throughout the Victorian period, with Morris designing tapestries, wallpaper, fabrics, furniture, and stained glass windows. In 1875, he assumed total control of the company, which was renamed Morris & Co.
Morris is recognised as one of the most significant cultural figures of Victorian Britain. He was best known in his lifetime as a poet, although he posthumously became better known for his designs.
Periods: Romanticism, Arts and Crafts movement, Symbolism, Aestheticism, Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.
Known for: Wallpaper and textile design, fantasy fiction / medievalism, socialism.
