From a set of sixteen tiles arranged in pairs to form eight illustrations of the 'Briar Rose' tale, 1862 - 1865
Made for The Hill, Witley, Surrey. Designed by Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones (born in Birmingham, 1833, died in London, 1898); possibly painted by Lucy Faulkner (born in 1839, died in 1910) for Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co., London; the blank tiles supplied from The Netherlands. ... Hand-painted tiles became a popular feature of artistic interiors from the 1860s onwards. Such tiles appear regularly in houses decorated in the Arts and Crafts style, and were used widely by exponents of vernacular architecture such as Richard Norman Shaw (1831-1912). The most common setting for such tiles was in and around the fireplace.
Please note the banners, which are different from the other tiles, in The Malcolm Bell illustration of 1903.
