This textile design by Walter Crane features symmetrical swans against a backdrop of stylised rushes and irises. The muted colour palette and balanced composition create a serene and visually appealing pattern, typical of the Arts and Crafts movement.
Walter Crane (1845-1915) was an English artist and book illustrator. He is considered one of the most influential figures in the Arts and Crafts movement. Crane's work spanned various media, including painting, illustration, and textile design. He advocated for art's accessibility to all classes, often incorporating socialist themes into his designs. His style is characterised by flat planes of colour, strong outlines, and decorative patterns, drawing inspiration from Japanese prints and Pre-Raphaelite painting. 'Swan, Rush and Iris Wallpaper' exemplifies Crane's approach to decorative art. Two symmetrical swans face each other, their elegant forms mirrored against a backdrop of stylised rushes and irises. The colour palette is restrained, with muted greens and creams creating a serene atmosphere. The design is both naturalistic and highly stylised, reflecting the Arts and Crafts movement's emphasis on craftsmanship and the integration of art into everyday life. The composition is carefully balanced, with the swans and vegetation arranged to create a harmonious and visually appealing pattern.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
