William Morris
(1834 - 1896)

William Morris


"O how I long to keep the world from narrowing on me, and to look at things bigly & kindly."


The work of Morris, both in poetry and in the applied arts, is characterised by an emphasis on decorative elements, especially on those that he thought to be characteristic of the art of the Middle Ages.
