About the Artwork

William De Morgan (1839 – 1917), was the leading ceramicist of the Arts and Crafts movement (c. 1870 – 1910). A trained fine artist, he began his career by creating stained glass panels, before moving onto ceramics; in particular, hearth place tiles, murals, and “hollowware”.

The 'Bloomsbury' swirl leaf foliate pattern, prominent in late Victorian tile design, adorned numerous backgrounds during that era.

Characterised by its intricate swirls, this enduring motif found favour in nurseries and bathrooms. Its timeless elegance and versatility contributed to the enduring popularity of this pattern throughout the late 19th century.
