Christopher Dresser (1834-1904) was, along with William Morris, one of the most important British designers of the Victorian era. During his career, in which he worked in most of the decorative arts, he designed fabric patterns for the leading brands of his time (Barlow & Jones, Tootal, Warner & Sons, Turnbull & Stockdale), quickly becoming the most prolific designer of the time, especially as his textiles were sold at affordable prices, making him popular in the fashion press.
This first monograph on his textile designs explores a little known aspect of Dresser's work.
