Colophon. [iv], 47, [ii] pp. Part of a William Morris series comprising five octavo books printed at the Chiswick Press with the Golden type designed by Morris for his Kelmscott Press, 1898–1901. This volume comprises two lectures delivered before the National Association for the Advancement of Art: "Lecture V: Art and Its Producers," was delivered by Morris in Liverpool, 1888, and "Lecture VI: The Arts and Crafts of Today," in Edinburgh, October 1889. As Walter Crane wrote of Morris's far-reaching aesthetic philosophy, "if it has not turned all British craftsmen into artists or all British artists into craftsmen, it has done not little to expand and socialize the idea of art, and (perhaps it is not too much to say) has made the tasteful English house with its furniture and decorations a model for the civilized world." [PMM 367.]The book was finished on the twenty-sixth day of April, 1901. Boards very slightly faded. No stains, chips, or scuffs. Internally exceptionally bright and clean throughout. Free from the usual spotting and foxing. Head slightly dusty. Condition overall: Near Fine.
