William Morris, designer, entrepreneur and socialist, was Pat’s particular hero. The bearded giant of the Victorian decorative arts was much admired by Pat’s adored father and this design was in the spirit of a humble acolyte (not a frequently assumed persona for Pat, who was an utterly confident designer). Morris, while a sophisticated and sinuous twister and manipulator of the natural world, was also a faithful portraitist of his floral models, capturing their particular form and growth even in the most highly wrought design. Pat was channelling Morris’ popular print ‘Strawberry Thief’ when she was producing ‘Standen’ but somehow the line and colour and eventually the whole design becomes her own.
