Morris Blue Background 1896 Compton Floral Pattern Postcard
This is a digitally enhanced version of William Morris's Compton Floral Pattern(1896) famous pattern.The background speckled design gives the impression of a velvet texture.
"Compton" is a stunning wallpaper design created by the legendary British designer William Morris around 1896. This pattern exemplifies Morris's signature style, blending intricate floral and natural motifs with a deep appreciation for craftsmanship. The design features a rich array of stylised flowers, leaves, and foliage, all arranged in harmonious, swirling patterns. The flowers, which resemble peonies and other blooming plants, are intricately detailed, their petals and stems flowing gracefully across the paper. These elements are interwoven with delicate foliage, creating an elegant, organic flow throughout the design.
The colour palette of "Compton" is a mix of muted, earthy tones—olive greens, soft browns, and warm reds—that give the design a sense of depth and natural warmth. The overall aesthetic is classic, timeless, and somewhat rustic, perfectly capturing the essence of the Arts and Crafts movement that Morris was instrumental in promoting. The design is both lush and serene, evoking a sense of calm and tranquillity, while also demonstrating Morris's dedication to the beauty of nature and the skilful art of design.
The "Compton" design is a reflection of the late 19th-century fascination with detailed, hand-crafted patterns, and it is an exemplary piece of Morris's work that celebrates the intersection of art, nature, and utility.

Bought 10 Shakespeare quotes postcards and have framed them individually and placed them around the house Love them, some are funny and some are deep and meaningful! Lovely background on some, excellent printed words. A couple of plain white cards with black print - very stricking

My order was probably an awkward one! I asked for a range of different fine-art prints, in postcard size. It was all freshly printed, delivered quickly and at a very reasonable price. Best quality matt finish I've seen on a fine-art print.
