Description

Digital Brilliance highlights William Morris (1834-1896), who was an English poet, artist, designer, businessman, and socialist reformer. Morris and fellow artists at Oxford University became famous as the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. The group included Dante Gabriel Rossetti and Edward Burne-Jones. In 1861 Morris founded William Morris and Co. with Rossetti and Burne-Jones as partners, and produced a wide range of practical and decorative goods. Morris provided a key stimulus to the arts and crafts movement.
