William Morris British Textile Designer “Strawberry Thief, 1883” Aesthetic Canvas Art Tote Bag with Zip Closure and Inner Zipped Pocket

About the Art:

William Morris's "Strawberry Thief" is one of his most iconic textile designs, created in 1883. Morris was a leading figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement, and his designs aimed to bring back a sense of craftsmanship and artistry to the world of decorative arts. The inspiration for "Strawberry Thief" is said to have come from Morris's own garden at Kelmscott Manor. The design reflects Morris's love for nature and his desire to incorporate the beauty of the natural world into everyday surroundings. The repeated motif of the birds and strawberries creates a sense of rhythm and harmony within the pattern. Morris was not only a designer but also a poet and socialist. His approach to design was deeply rooted in his philosophical beliefs, emphasizing the value of craftsmanship and the importance of making art accessible to all. "Strawberry Thief" exemplifies this philosophy, as it was intended to be part of the Arts and Crafts movement's broader effort to bring beautiful, well-crafted items into the homes of people from all walks of life.

Love it!

Really beautiful bag, a great size and had many compliments. The inner pocket is not quite deep enough to fit a phone but can fit a few small items in it like keys, hand cream, lip balm etc. Great purchase
