The Floral Eve print
design comes from a large
botanical painting by
Rachel Pedder Smith,
entitled The Herbarium
Specimen. The artwork is
over five metres long,
depicting over 700
diverse plant specimens
with evocative Latin
names, in a lovingly
intricate, detailed
style. It's a rather
striking thing, as I am
sure you will agree,
featuring native British
flora and those of more
far-flung locales. Nettle
nestles with cannabis,
Japanese camellia with
cyclamen, and so on.
Pods and husks and petals
and leaves in contrasting
bright and earthy tones.
The spent, ossified with
the tremulous, just
emerging. Delightful,
radiant, joyful and
exquisitely decorative. A
three button cuff shirt
on Liberty Tana Lawn
superior cotton.

Liberty Meadow Melody
print is dominated by a
richly textured chorus of
mountain blooms –
lilies, dahlias and
tulips form a vibrant
cascade, a visual
expression perhaps of the
soft stillness and
intense crescendos of
Richard Strauss’ An
Alpine Symphony. It is an
opulent, exuberant piece
that nevertheless seems
to also express
tranquility with its
scarlets, yellow-gold,
phthalo blue and Prussian
green, chalk whites; and
languid, expanded forms.
Beautiful, mellifluous,
rare. 'Moore' three
button cuff. On finest
Tana lawn.

'Heidi' evokes the
freshness and charm of an
Alpine meadow. Bursting
with life, bright points
of colour - poppies,
Spanish bluebell,
cinquefoil peek through a
tangled skein of stems
and leaves. It is painted
in a delightful,
restrained manner in
which the intricate,
diaphanous forms are semi
silhouetted against the
soft white ground, as
though viewed in the
dawn's low, raking rays,
shadowed leaves are
tinted blue as we see at
elevation in pristine
light. A beautifully
observed and executed
floral piece for Spring.
'Jagger' - single button
cuff.

Liberty Decadent Blooms
print on fine Tana Lawn
cotton started life as a
painting and was then
printed as a furnishing
fabric in 1989.
Sumptuous, late season
roses, peonies and
forget-me-nots are
pictured in the moment
before the petals begin
to fall. The sense here
is of just spent beauty,
of aftermath and the
beginning of dissolution,
with its peculiar
sensuousness and languid,
failing energy. An
English country garden as
the season turns.
Decadence indeed. Poster
like in execution,
perhaps originally a
gouache, the pinks,
whites and purples of
blooms, the earthy
greens of leaves are laid
out in flat even toned
areas with sharp
transitions to shadow,
evoking perhaps, late
low and contrasty light
as the day draws to a
close. A vibrant cerulean
blue forms the ground
against which the floral
'denouement' plays out.
'Moore' 3 button cuff.

Virginia Meadow, by
Liberty is a view of a
meadow but, as it were,
in dissolution, suffused
through by the power of
light. An original
artwork created in the
studio using artist grade
intensely pigmented felt
pens one might call it
'impressionistic' -
somewhere between
depiction and pure
expression. Poppies,
hollyhocks, trefoils and
worts shimmer against
teal, viridian and
cobalt blue in an
effervescent show. On
finest Tana lawn cotton
giving superior
definition, a luxurious
hand feel and exemplary
wearability. 'Moore'
three button cuff.
