"Beautiful and Useful" – The Victorian Arts & Crafts Movement (1860-1910)
“Have nothing in your houses which you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.” (William Morris 1880). He and others believed that mass production produced inferior goods and they returned to the styles of earlier ages, utilising natural materials that were not only beautiful but functional.
We study the very colourful style of the Arts and Crafts Movement which began in Britain around 1860 and comprised a group of craftsmen, artists, designers and architects who aimed to raise the status of the applied arts (useful, with a utilitarian purpose e.g. weaving or pottery) to that of the fine arts (aesthetically significant – architecture, painting, sculpture and some graphic arts.
The Movement was largely inspired and led by William Morris (1834-96), poet, artist, architect whose firm, Morris, Marshall, & Faulkner founded 1861, promoted hand-made textiles, books, wallpapers and furniture. The idea was to return to the use of natural materials and recollection of older styles, notably medieval, and to open up and brighten homes.

The Shaping of Early Victorian Britain (1837-1850)
A course for lovers of social and cultural history during the early Victorian era, which was a time of change and development, and the effects of the Industrial Revolution. Much was happening in this period including reforms and a different way of thinking which brought about Factory Acts and observation of the needs of the poor. Working conditions were harsh and homes for the poor insanitary.
The family was central to peaceful harmony and the new middle-class norm was for separate spheres: women in the domestic sphere focussing on husband, family care and “good works”, while men were to be in the public sphere, including politics and commerce. Legally, women had almost no rights and were the property of their husbands.

Looking at Victorian Art – paintings as social history
Victorian paintings tell us much more than the main picture. They are full of symbolism and reveal other features around the central subject, reflecting massive social changes, turmoil and emotions.
Victorian artists attempted to expose social conditions by painting them realistically rather than making the subjects beautiful. Some took a moral stance, and the fallen woman was a
popular subject.
Domestic scenes showed interiors of everyday life which appealed to the public and painters wanted to portray them as ‘real life’. They were not afraid of painting controversial subjects which might shock the public.
Paintings, such as the large William Powell Frith’s Derby Day, were so popular when they were shown that a rail was needed to stop the public from getting too close to the pictures and damaging them.
