The first fully illustrated and comprehensive introduction to May Morris's work as an artist, designer and embroiderer, published in association with the V&A. She ran the embroidery department of Morris & Co., as well as designing textiles, wallpapers and jewellery.May was also an influential teacher and lectured in the UK and America. May Morris (1862-1938), younger daughter of William Morris, was a significant figure in the British Arts and Crafts movement and a pioneer of 'art embroidery'.
It draws together her designs, exquisite embroideries, watercolours, costume and jewellery from museums around the world, and in particular the rich collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum and the William Morris Gallery, London.The book contains more than 180 items in colour and detailed information on their materials and provenance compiled by leading experts. May Morris: Arts & Crafts Designer is the first publication to present the full range of May Morris's work and reveals her exceptional skill and originality. There are also new insights into May's personal life and relationships, her social activism and her support for other craftswomen.
This authoritative and illuminating study places May Morris, whose reputation has been overshadowed by that of her father, firmly among the leading British designer-makers of the Arts and Crafts movement.
