William Morris
William Morris, founder of the influential 19th Century Arts and Crafts movement, advocated a return to a simpler way of life through the revival of traditional handicrafts. Like many Victorians, Morris questioned the values of a newly industrial Britain and looked back to what he considered a better time. “Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.”http://www.morrissociety.org/http://www.lbwf.gov.uk/wmg/
