Strawberry Thief



My heart was racing in the final minutes of the ebay auction for this Liberty print blouse from J Crew. I had won one recently but it was too small, and here was a second chance. I won, it is mine, and I am so in love! This print is from William Morris and is a cornucopia of birds and flowers but I love the sort of muddied, moody feel of it. Very 1970's Pre-Raphaelite, don't you think?




Check out this painting by Frank Sidney Harper, 1919, showing the Strawberry Thief wallpaper in the background. Found here.
