Watercolour of the Morris & Co. George Street showroom. This watercolour was commissioned for use in a 1919 pamphlet advertising the move of the Morris & Co.’s showroom, two years previous from 449 Oxford Street to 17 George Street, Hanover Square. The move occured during the First World War in 1917 and was perhaps the reason that this pamphet was not published until 1919.
In this watercolour we can see how the showroom was designed to look like a living room and some examples of stained glass on display at the further wall of the showroom.
