William Morris: Marigold (1875) Arts & Crafts Botanical Print

Infuse your space with the rhythmic elegance of an English garden. This museum-quality Giclée reproduction features William Morris’s Marigold (1875), a design that captures the very soul of the Arts and Crafts aesthetic.

Designed in 1875, Marigold showcases Morris’s mastery of 'diaper' patterns—designs that repeat in a structured, geometric fashion without feeling rigid. By the mid-1870s, Morris was moving toward patterns that felt lighter and more airy. The marigold blooms are rendered with a delicate, almost calligraphic linework, set against a 'sea' of smaller leaves that provide a sense of shimmering movement. This work reflects Morris’s belief that decoration should be 'suggestive' of nature rather than a literal copy, creating a sense of calm and order within the home.

Original 19th-century prints were produced using hand-carved woodblocks and natural vegetable dyes. Our archival Giclée print is digitally mastered to preserve the soft, chalky finish and the subtle color gradations of the original Morris & Co. archives. Printed on premium art paper, it ensures the delicate creams and blues remain vibrant for a lifetime.

A quintessential Statement Piece for a breakfast nook, a sophisticated nursery, or a heritage-style hallway. This William Morris Print is a perfect gift for historians, interior designers, and lovers of classic British textiles.
