European Art Architecture May Morris (1862–1938) once described herself as a “remarkable woman… though none of you seemed to think so.” These words proved painfully prophetic, as Morris has since been overshadowed by her father’s more famous legacy. May Morris’ innovative embroidery designs, impassioned activism, and inspired record-keeping made her an unsung heroine of the Arts & Crafts movement.
