Liberty Tana Lawn® Fabric Myrtle & Mary C
£27.95 Mtr
Inspired by a Dutch-style floral painting from the Liberty archive dating back to 1926, this breathtaking botanical takes cues from the technical aspects of textile design. Amongst a luscious profusion of tulips, roses, primroses, carnations, daffodils, and irises, visible grid marks can be distinguished, while vibrant polka dots serve as guides, corresponding to the separation of colours.
Celebrating 150 years of Liberty, the ‘From the Studio’ collection stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the London design house. Paying homage to the dedicated artisanship that Liberty has been renowned for since the opening of its Regent Street flagship in 1875, this collection explores the creatives who have shaped the story so far. Divided into three distinct narratives — Craftsmanship, Collaboration, and Collectibles — ‘From the Studio’ unveils design sketches and archival studies, shedding light on Liberty’s innovative artistic practice. This collection reveals the journey from inspiration through drawing, painting, and experimenting with digital artwork to the final printed textile.
The Craftsmanship chapter explores the creative process through a journey of discovery within the Liberty archive. From print impressions and colour separations to embroidered studies, ceramics, jewellery, and furniture. Uncover the origins of the designers’ musings through artworks inspired by their sketchbooks and prototypes.
