John Ruskin Exhibition in Sheffield

2nd May 2013

John Ruskin Exhibition in Sheffield

This is likely to be of great interest to William Morris fans.  There is a fascinating exhibition entitled  Force of Nature: Picturing Ruskin’s Landscapes which is on display at Museums Sheffield, until Sunday 23rd June, 3013.   John Ruskin, (William Morris’ great inspiration and friend), was, like Morris himself, a truly remarkable Victorian.  Ruskin’s influence on Victorian society was wide-ranging and profound and still reverberates through our era.

Foreground Leafage (From Modern Painters, by John Ruskin, 1856)

William Morris designs bring nature indoors with all the florals, birds and botanicals, so we brought some of our garden inside with some beautiful snowdrops on the table - anyone else excited about the garden waking up for spring? 🌱☀️

We thought we’d do a little spotlight onto all our designs the next few weeks to give more story behind them as they’re all so historic being licensed William Morris designs ✨ First designed in 1874, this is Lily, a beautiful design that incorporates the willow background with lilies and wild flowers 🫶🏻 The design must have been well loved by Morris himself- it was the wallpaper he used to decorate his bedroom at the gorgeous @kelmscottmanor - his home in Lechlade 🤍 Have you ever seen Morris’ Lily design? It’s one of our favourites 🤍
