William Morris tapestries
Originally
founded as Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co in 1861, Morris & Co were
renowned for the design and production of very high quality decorative art.
The range of works included textiles, tapestries, wall decoration and stained
glass work, and was founded on Pre-Raphaelite principles.
William Morris embraced an ideal that viewed modern art as mere mass production, with none of the uniqueness of earlier approaches, in particular Medieval art, which he believed retained more of the artist's original personality in the work. All William Morris tapestries are a testament to craftsmanship, technique and discipline, as well as triumphing the artist above the process. It is for this reason that these wall tapestries are valued as highly as they are today. Each piece really is a one-off, and combines modern weaving technique with the striking dynamism of pre-Renaissance art.
We have an impressive range of William Morris tapestries including work from
Edward Burne-Jones, John Henry Dearle and other noted Pre-Raphaelite artists.
These include a number of famous pieces, such as the Peacock tapestry, Flora,
Woodpecker, the Holy Grail tapestry panels and the Tree of Life tapestry.
Every William Morris tapestry below demonstrates the consummate skill in composition
and the extent to which Pre-Raphaelite artists used color to achieve vibrant
and dynamic art that remains unchallenged even today.
