US Evelyn Motif - Spirit of Flora Collection

William De Morgan’s wife Evelyn was a famous artist in her own right. Her most famous work ‘Flora’ was based on Botticelli’s painting

‘The Birth of Venus’ which resides in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, where the De Morgans spent much of their time. Both paintings feature pink flowers and lots of green foliage, so I used these elements as inspiration for this motif.
