William Morris to Whistler; papers and addresses on art and craft and the commonweal

Crane, Walter, 1845-1915 · 1911 · London, G. Bell & Sons ltd. · 61 pictures

Collected papers and lectures on art, craft and design by the English illustrator and Arts and Crafts designer Walter Crane, published in London by G. Bell & Sons in 1911 for artists, craftworkers and students of design reform. The plates are halftone photographs of relief-carved and modelled panels—banded friezes of animals and figures, medallions enclosing dragons, dense acanthus and arabesque scrollwork—useful as sources for repeating border strips, cartouche frames and low-contrast textured ornament.
