Walter Crane was a well known Victorian era, British artist. Born in Liverpool, he was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Movement, John Ruskin, and William Morris.
Crane produced beautiful romantic paintings, wonderful illustrations for books, Ceramic Tiles and art pottery. He also worked in a number of other decorative mediums. I am especially drawn to the art pottery pieces he designed. I love the classical and aesthetic themes combined with the bold bright colors.
