William Morris: Words & Wisdom Paperback

Regular price £10.00

A collection of observations by, and about, the great British polymath, visionary, designer and writer. Accompanied by images of Morris, his work and his collaborators.

Born in London in 1834, William Morris was a radical thinker whose democratic vision for society and art has continued to influence designers, artists and writers to this day, long after his death in 1896. He was a gifted poet, architect, painter, writer and textile designer, who also founded the Kelmscott Press, the most famous of the Arts and Crafts private presses. 

Drawing on Morris's own extensive writings, and illustrated with vivid images of the man himself, as well as his iconic textiles and wallpapers, William Morris: Words & Wisdom explores his passionately held view that fine, functional design should be accessible to all. Alongside his own words are the reflection of Morris's friends, family and those who later found inspiration in his life.
