William Morris Tealish Blue Tulip with Monogram Bowl

This gorgeous teal (blue-green) and cream tulip pattern was designed by William Morris in the late 1800s and printed on fabric in the early 1900s. William Morris was a British textile designer, printer, artist, novelist, translator and socialist activist associated in the British Arts and Crafts Movement. He was influential in the revival of traditional British textile arts production. His work is also heavily associated with the Art Nouveau movement.
