Even when I knew how to knit, I couldn't have pulled this off. But I know those that can are out there, and felt compelled to share: how stunning is this?

'A Marriage of Art & Craft'

1. Cherub Vase (c. 1890), by William De Morgan⁠

2. Flora (1894) by Evelyn De Morgan⁠

"The blockbuster De Morgan US exhibition tour, 'A Marriage of Art & Craft' returns @crockerart in Sacramento 📅 Until January 2024⁠

⁠The exhibition explores the many joint interests of Victorian artists Evelyn and William De Morgan.⁠

⁠"One area of the show I think is really special is the display of De Morgan artworks influenced by the Italian Renaissance,' says Sarah Hardy, the exhibition curator. ⁠

⁠'William and Evelyn lived in Florence each winter from 1890 - 1914 and loved the city. This comes across in both of their artworks and it's great to see Evelyn's sketch after Botticelli's 'The Birth of Venus' next to her own painting 'Flora' which the Renaissance painter so inspired. ⁠

⁠However, showing these next to William's 'Cherub Vase' which was made in Florence with the local potter, Ulisse Cantagalli, is a rare thing to be able to do. They look fabulous together and demonstrate the importance of Italy to both artists."
