Driven by passion for tapestry and textile arts, William Morris revitalized English weaving during the late 19th century through designs that merged medieval inspiration with Victorian craftsmanship. This jacquard composition depicts a minstrel playing the organon, a small portable bellows organ that represents the musical culture Morris sought to celebrate through his medieval revival aesthetic. The musician figure reflects Morris's fascination with pre-industrial artistic traditions and his belief that handcrafted beauty should permeate daily life. Available in two landscape formats - 50 x 67 cm and 75 x 100 cm - the piece demonstrates Morris's integration of figurative subjects with decorative elements that characterized the Arts and Crafts movement. Woven from 72% cotton, 25% viscose, and 3% polyester with cotton lining, this work appeals to music history enthusiasts and Morris collectors who appreciate how Victorian artists revived medieval subject matter while establishing new standards for decorative arts that influenced design philosophy well into the 20th century.
