Dunlap: William Caxton & William MorrisPeter Faulkner: William Morris & Eric GillS.L. Bensusan: The Charm of Burne-Jones Provenance:From the collection of Arthur Halcrow Verstage (1875-1969); The Millinery Works Collection.Footnote: Note: Arthur Halcrow Verstage was an architect who spent much of his career in the public sector. He was a student at the Royal Academy School of Architecture in the 1900s and was elected as an Associate of the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1902. By 1903 he was a student and assistant at the Central School of Arts and Crafts (later known as the Central School of Art and Design) in London where William Lethaby was principal and a great influence on him. He then oversaw the design of the new school in Southampton Row from 1905-8. From here he became an architect for London County Council and was involved with many London societies, and as a founding member of the Kelmscott Fellowship, a forerunner to The William Morris Society. His large and varied collection, amassed from 1902 to 1972, reflected his wide interest in the arts. His archive was purchased by The William Morris Society in 2005.
patinated wrought iron with hammered and patinated copper shades and brass ceiling hook100cm diameter, 175cm highFootnote: Provenance: Property from an Important Private CollectionLiterature: Ashbee, C.R. Suggestions for Light Fittings Art Journal, 1895 V&A Accession number M.60-2000See Guild of Handicraft Trade Catalogue, circa 1900, p.58, where a similar wrought-iron ceiling light is illustratedNote: The openwork construction of this impressive light, the pendant fittings and the distinctive arrangement of electric wires are characteristic of Ashbee's work in the then relatively new medium of lighting for electricity. Ashbee, in his paper Suggestions for Light Fittings of 1895 was particularly interested to note that light from electricity fell instead of rose, as with candles and gas lighting. Many of his fittings employ the use of cowled reflectors which further direct the light downwards. He went on to state that “I prefer rest in a design and feel disturbed when three naked bronze children come rushing over the table with forty-eight candle-power hands full”. In the Art Journal article, Ashbee described a chandelier which he designed for the drawing-room of his house, the Magpie and Stump at 37 Cheyne Walk, as "a rather elaborate arrangement of a nine-pendant rose.... Here, almost the whole effect of the design is got in the manipulation of the cords, and - a little detail in light designing that is so often forgotten - their arrangement is such as to cast pleasing and broken shadows on the ceiling. The nine-pendant circular rose in question spins a sort of grand spider-web upon white plaster."
