Tree of Life tapestry Inspired by William Morris The Tree of Life tapestry was designed by Morris & Co in the late 19th century. The tapestry is designed with intricate leaf and branch patterns. The core elements of these patterns come from the tree of life. This is a common theme in many of Morris' works, including other textiles and wallpaper patterns. The gorgeous and detailed background in this tree of life tapestry is inspired by the medieval decoration technique Mille Fleurs. The pre-Renaissance art left a deep impression on William Morris and others who accepted the pre-Raphaelite approach to art. The motivation was to reflect more anxiety about mass production and preference for art. Participate in the individual, not the technology used in production.
