About the artist
Post Morris’s demise in 1896, Dearle took over as the Art Director of the firm, and with Burne-Jones's death in 1898, he became the principal stained glass designer. Despite his significant contributions, Dearle's work was often overshadowed by Morris's reputation, with his designs even being sold under Morris's name. However, the latter part of the 20th century saw a shift in the critical assessment of Dearle's work, acknowledging his unique artistic vision. Although he always stayed true to Morris's aesthetic, Dearle began integrating distinctive Persian and Turkish influences into his designs from the 1890s onwards.
