Tác giả: Walter Crane

Walter Crane (1845-1915) was born in Liverpool. By his mid-twenties he had become a socialist and illustrated the party’s journals. He worked with William Morris who, like Crane, was a designer frustrated by industry infringement on craftmanship. Crane and Morris, among others, established the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society. Crane continued to create political artwork, and his heralded May Day pieces were published in Cartoons for the Cause. In addition to The Claims of Decorative Art, Crane’s book publication includes The Bases of Design and Line and Form.
