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 whose designs are also featured on these notecards—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. The intricate botanical patterns of their designs invite you to enjoy a moment of quiet contemplation in an otherwise busy day. --- 16 assorted blank notecards (4 each of 4 designs) with envelopes Paper-wrapped decorative box with hinged closure Printed in full color on FSC paper with soy based inks High-quality 250 gsm card stock Soft white envelopes A2 card size Box size: 5 x 6.25 x 1.25 in.Card size: 4.25 x 5.5 in.ISBN 9781087506920
