Product Description
Review
The trend to hero-worship of William Morris would have turned his stomach. The man who brought art and taste into middle class living rooms was an iconoclastic socialist. This official catalogue, originally published to accompany the Victoria & Albert Museum's exhibition, aims to uncover the artist behind the popular caricature and on the whole does a pretty thorough job. There are essays on Morris's business and political activities, his interior designs, calligraphy and stained glass work and his influence on today's designers. Lavishly illustrated and beautifully produced. (Kirkus UK)
