An abundance of ripened pomegranates hangs temptingly from the branches of an overflowing tree, growing amongst the abundant flora. Printed over fine branches in the background to give the design greater depth, Fruit is one of the first William Morris designs, produced in 1864, demonstrating early on its creator`s skill as a pattern maker. Today, Fruit has been adapted into a tapestry weave fabric for upholstery and soft furnishings.
