The son of a non-conformist mathematics professor, he became a close friend of William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones and married the Pre-Raphaelite painter Evelyn Pickering (1855-1919), in 1887. As a ceramicist, De Morgan was primarily a designer/decorator and chemist, working on bought-in blanks or pots thrown to his design. He experimented widely with techniques and glazes, re-discovering methods for making and applying lustres and the colours of Iznik and Persian pottery and using them for a range of complex fantasy designs featuring ships, birds, flora and animals. This design dates from 1872-81, when De Morgan was first producing lustre-ware in Chelsea. The tile was made later, at Sands End, Fulham, when he was in partnership with the architect Halsey Ricardo. The coarse earthenware and rough sides indicate that the tile was intended for a fireplace or other architectural use. De Morgan made many, many designs for tiles and tile panels – some 820 are in the V&A collection. reference term-108070 adlib-term-108070 7e278258-23e3-3d5b-a4ff-ab5ecacb4bf3 19th Century, Late reference term-106395 adlib-term-106395 7196d3f3-463d-30bd-998b-d51c42ebc1ea literal England England country Fulham reference term-106998 adlib-term-106998 e3be6de7-1089-333e-a2e9-d7165b18816d literal England England country Chelsea coarse, buff-coloured reference term-42861 adlib-term-42861 5b368285-f1a8-3dcf-a5b2-637fd3c3956c earthenware Width cm 15.5 Width in 6.125 reference media-205849 adlib-media-205849 5b9e98cc-4ada-3f14-becb-90c4c9f281bd jpeg aa/aa37/large_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 1021 width pixels 1024 1616256013072 1 image jpeg aa/aa37/mid_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 499 width pixels 500 1616256013072 1 image jpeg aa/aa37/EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 1022 width pixels 1025 1616256013072 1 image jpeg aa/aa37/preview_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 249 width pixels 250 1616256013072 1 image 0 media image reference media-1808240501 portfolio portfolio-media-1808240501 a8931405-ceaf-3343-83fd-2ca0c27404d6 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/433/128/large_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1157 width pixels 1024 1529199045000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/433/128/mid_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 565 width pixels 500 1529199045000 1 image EC.5-1941_201402_adn21_mas.tif 1529199045000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/433/128/preview_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 282 width pixels 250 1529199045000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/433/128/EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_mas.ptif 1 height pixels 5209 width pixels 4612 1529199045000 1 image 1 media image reference media-4233034301 portfolio portfolio-media-4233034301 162eb06f-deb9-32d7-98c7-0b4a42fb3d6b jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/626/659/large_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 1021 width pixels 1024 1550048643000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/626/659/mid_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 499 width pixels 500 1550048643000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/626/659/EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 3532 width pixels 3542 1550048643000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/626/659/preview_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 249 width pixels 250 1550048643000 1 image pyramid tiff portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/626/659/EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_dc1.ptif 1 height pixels 3532 width pixels 3542 1550048643000 1 image 2 media image reference media-664905629 portfolio portfolio-media-664905629 436f4387-648b-3d22-beca-23daac1b0bb4 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/49/400/large_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1157 width pixels 1024 1695949582000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/49/400/mid_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 565 width pixels 500 1695949582000 1 image EC.5-1941_201402_adn21_mas.tif 1695949582000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/1/49/400/preview_EC_5_1941_201402_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 282 width pixels 250 1695949582000 1 image 3 media image reference term-30982 adlib-term-30982 952a2227-ce0e-31a3-a0d9-40085991be5b tile history note Given by Mr H C Mossop, 1941 1 reference object-15320 adlib-object-15320 aba82456-c476-37ee-b164-700c01aabf59
