Dearle, J.H.: Rose+Lily curtain; Morris+Co c.1900 (SA Art Gallery)
J.H. Dearle (1860-1932) was the British designer of the 'Rose and Lily curtain' produced by Morris & Company, London c.1900, and photographed on display in the South Australian Art Gallery (in 2013). Two close ups follow, showing some of the detail.
Woven silk & wool, with a silk & cotton fringe (not shown).
Not sure my camera has done justice to the colours.
Gifted by Jenny Legoe through the Art Gallery of South Australia Foundation 2003.
