William Morris: Arts & Crafts Designs 2027 Wall Calendar

A leader in the styles and politics of his time, William Morris viewed his patterns as both an art form and a means of social commentary. In response to the industrial designs and manufacturing of the Machine Age, he and his counterparts at Morris & Co - some of John Henry Dearle's designs are also featured in this calendar - created wallpapers and fabrics that boasted natural floral motifs and handmade craftmanship. Their work and ideology inspired many of the artists around them, ushering in the Arts and Crafts movement.
