My eyes went straight to the William De Morgan bottle c1890. Of course he was associated with the Arts and Crafts movement, and the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society, but his work shone out individually, didn't it?
ReplyDeleteWhat is there not to love about the shape, colours, patterns and the finish.
I did a post somewhere about the tiles he did for Leighton's rather strange house. Evelyn gets most of the publicity but he was very good. There is a bigweb site on their life and work. I was so pleased to find these pictures. So near so far for me but at least I can be a voyeur.
