I almost salivate at the skill of a good tapestry, and I love William Morris's aesthetics

I've just bought the Taschen book on Bauhaus (updated to mark 100 years since the foundation of the school - the book is excellent and going cheap on Amazon right now*), and surprisingly William Morris is one of the first major figures mentioned. His ideas were very well received in Germany. I think his influence was more to do with the Socialist 'people's art' idea - there are no obvious similarities between this 'Arts and Crafts' fuss and Bauhaus' respect for clean lines and simplicity. * www.amazon.co.uk/Bauhaus-Magdalena-Droste/dp/3836565544/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1551697464&sr=8-1&keywords=taschen+bauhaus

Does the book mention Dresser? It blew my mind when I saw his teapot. It's straight out that Bauhaus/modernist design aesthetic, yet he designed it in 1879! It looks like nothing else from the time.

I was pretty excited when I found out I'd be shooting a couple William Eggleston prints for an upcoming sale, but they're both boring as shit, so I won't post them here.

Stick with your ornate calligraphy and paintings of ferns, G!
