EDITORS COMMENTS
"This drawing depicts The Red House in Upton, a masterpiece of Arts and Crafts architecture designed by Philip Webb for the Pre-Raphaelite couple, William Morris and his wife, Jane, in 1859. The Red House, located in Upton-upon-Severn, Worcestershire, England, served as the Morris family's residence for over two decades. William Morris, a renowned textile designer, poet, and socialist, and his wife, Jane, were married in 1859. To celebrate their union, Morris commissioned his dear friend and fellow Arts and Crafts advocate, Philip Webb, to design and build their dream home. The result was The Red House, a stunning example of the Arts and Crafts movement's principles of simplicity, functionality, and harmony with nature. The drawing, dated circa 1900, showcases the distinctive red brick exterior of The Red House, with its steeply pitched roof, tall chimneys, and large windows. The house's design was influenced by medieval architecture and the natural beauty of the surrounding countryside. Inside, the interiors were adorned with intricate woodwork, stained glass, and Morris & Co.'s famous textiles. The Red House was more than just a home for the Morris family; it was a labor of love and a testament to their commitment to the Arts and Crafts movement. The couple's dedication to creating beautiful, handcrafted objects and their advocacy for social reform inspired a generation of artists, architects, and craftspeople. Today, The Red House stands as a symbol of the Arts and Crafts movement's enduring legacy and continues to captivate visitors with its unique charm and character." From the extensive collection of historic prints at Mary Evans Picture Library, this drawing offers a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the lasting impact of William Morris and his visionary circle on the world of art and design.
