| Description | All of the printed textiles named after rivers were large-scale patterns that required at least 30 separate, carved wood blocks to complete. Morris described this pattern to his older daughter Jenny, explaining that “it will have to be very elaborate & splendid” and that he was naming it after the River Wandle “to honour our helpful stream.” [A work made of indigo discharge block printed cotton.] |
