This interior was designed by British artist William Morris and his associates around 1860. The style is that of the Arts and Crafts movement, which was started by Morris in reaction to the decorative excess of the Victorian style and the lifelessness of mass-produced products. The furniture, textiles, and wallpaper are all handmade. The cabinets on the right and left feature Pre-Raphaelite paintings; Morris’s designs for the wallpaper and carpet were adapted from medieval manuscripts.
