Textiles of the Arts & Crafts Movement by Linda Parry
In a delightful and thorough investigation, Linda Parry recalls the artistic genesis and glory of the Arts and Crafts movement's fabricmakers and their work. The author outlines the history of late- 19th-century England's textile industry, and shares her understanding of the atmosphere that gave rise to the Arts and Crafts Society.
'Lucid exposition of the artistic and industrial background of the movement … greatly enhanced by its catalogue of designers, craftsmen, institutions … excellent plates, which convey the richness and subtlety of colour so characteristic of Arts and Crafts movement textiles' - Journal of the William Morris Society
