It is also immediately one of the most elaborate: branches of fruit trees crisscrossing one another, with split-open pomegranates, lemons, small flowers and tightly clustered leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMorris opted for a naturalistic, distinctly British approach to pattern design that was new and quietly radical in his era: no symmetrical ornamental motifs, just plants as they actually grow. The wallpaper was block-printed using distemper paint, colour by colour, with a separate block for each shade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe selected the blue colourway: a pale blue base as the wallpaper’s background, with the fruit and foliage above it in green, ochre and red. This design is woven rather than printed – the colours are embedded right into the backing and will not fade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWilliam Morris · 'Fruit' (Pomegranate), designed 1865–66, released 1866 · wallpaper, block-printed with distemper paint.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kunstsokken","offers":[{"title":"36-40","offer_id":53677549715722,"sku":"CH-POM-BLU-3640","price":12.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"41-46","offer_id":53677549748490,"sku":"CH-POM-BLU-4146","price":12.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0745\/5768\/6026\/files\/kunstsokken-william-morris-pomegranate-01-behang-licht.jpg?v=1789095975","url":"https:\/\/retail.kunstsokken.nl\/en\/products\/william-morris-pomegranate","provider":"Kunstsokken Retail","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
