William Morris was a hugely influential figure in the Aesthetic Movement and the Arts and Crafts revival. He was responsible for a vast quantity of work, including textiles, wallpapers, ceramics and stained glass, and revitalised many traditional techniques. He championed the idea that craft and decoration were no less significant than the fine arts.
