Аннотация: Morris

Уильям Моррис (1834-1896) был одной из величайших творческих личностей 19 века. Как дальновидный дизайнер, а также производитель, писатель, художник и социалистический активист, он стал пионером движения декоративно-прикладного искусства викторианской эпохи и оказал исключительное влияние на архитектуру, текстиль и дизайн интерьеров.
Богато иллюстрированная книга Шарлотты и Питера Филл "Моррис" представляет собой прекрасное введение в яркую жизнь Морриса и все аспекты его дизайнерской деятельности, включая интерьеры, плитку, вышивку, гобелены, ковры и каллиграфию.
Книга на английском языке.
William Morris (1834-1896) was one of the greatest creative figures of the 19th century. As a visionary designer, as well as a manufacturer, writer, artist, and socialist activist, he pioneered the Arts and Crafts movement of the Victorian era, and left an extraordinary influence on architecture, textile, and interior design.
This richly illustrated book offers a suitably beautiful introduction to Morris's colorful life and all aspects of his design work, including interiors, tiles, embroidery, tapestries, carpets, and calligraphy. Though best known in his lifetime as a poet and author, it is these exquisite designs that secured Morris's posthumous reputation. As page after page dazzles with their beautiful patterns and forms, we explore the pioneering craftsmanship and natural motifs that inspired them, as well as Morris's remarkable cultural legacy, through British textiles, Bauhaus, and even modern environmentalism.
