FORSTER (E.M.)A late nineteenth century Arts and Crafts ebonised 'Morris' adjustable-back reclining armchair, designed by Philip Webb and possibly made by Morris, Faulkner & Co/Morris & Co. formerly in the possession of E.M. Forster, the arched arms with bobbin turned spindles, the legs united by bobbin turned stretchers, arms and loose cushions upholstered in later Morris & Co 'Seaweed' design fabric, 97cm high x 68cm wide x 79cm deepFootnotes:FORSTER'S MORRIS & CO. RECLINING ARMCHAIR FROM HIS ROOMS AT KING'S COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE.In his biography, Nick Furbank gives a detailed description of Forster's rooms when he first knew him early in 1947, a few months after Forster's arrival in Cambridge: '...The first thing that caught one's eye in the room was the mantelpiece, designed by his father, an elaborate oaken structure... in front stood a long sofa with a padded rail, rather shabby, flanked by two William Morris armchairs, also shabby, and swathed in knitted shawls...' (Furbank, P.N., E.M. Forster: A Life, 1977, p.291). Callers would usually find Forster '...in the further armchair, a shawl over his knees if it were winter, and letters, opened and unopened, strewn in quantities around him... He would throw himself back in his chair, in rather a sack-like way, and address himself benevolently, with an air of leisure, to conversation...' (ibid, p.292). Our chair can clearly be seen in several photographs of Forster in his rooms at Cambridge, published both in Furbank and in Wendy Moffat's E.M. Forster, A New Life, London, 2010. A photograph showing the armchair in situ and dated in pencil on the reverse by Furbank ('1947') is included in the lot.A similar example of this chair is held in the collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum (CIRC.250&A/1toB/1-1961), whose catalogue notes that the design originated in the late Georgian period and was discovered by Warrington Taylor, business manager of Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co. in a Sussex carpenter's workshop in 1866. The design was developed by Philip Webb for manufacture and produced by the firm from about 1869. It became one of the firm's most popular designs and was available in black, as here, in line with contemporary 'aesthetic' taste, or mahogany with a choice of upholstery in 'Utrecht Velvet' (costing 10 guineas in 1912) or chintz (at 8 guineas), most likely the original fabric. Nick Furbank and the present owner both had the chair re-upholstered in more recent times.Provenance: E.M. Forster (1879-1970); P.N. ('Nick') Furbank (1920-2014); his friend and executor Dr W.R. Owens, the present owner (see adjacent lots).For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
