A Belief in the Power of Beauty:
A Selection of Works by May Morris (1862 – 1938)

August 28, 2010 – January 2, 2011

For much of her life, the artistic output of May Morris, daughter of Arts and Crafts pioneer William Morris, was lost in the shadow of her famous father. This exhibition will examine a collection of watercolor paintings as well as a selection of other media in which her artistic talents flourished.
