Lent Lily Plum/Bayleaf

Description

Originally sketched and coloured for wallpaper, Lent Lily has been thoughtfully refined by the Morris & Co. design team. Bold, stylised floral motifs of pointed tulips contrast with the swirls of the iconic acanthus leaf. The name Lent Lily refers to the miniature wild daffodils nestled into the ground of this lovingly adapted design. Taken from a rarely seen watercolour artwork in the archive, the design retains the original hand-drawn movement through a considered approach to the printing process. Available as fabric and wallpaper. Morris & Co. x The Huntington – The Unfinished Works, is an exceptional series of designs created in collaboration with The Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens in California, USA.
