EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the artistry of screen-printing wallpaper by hand at Sandersons, London in the 1960s. The artist, Sandersons, was a renowned British manufacturer of fabrics and wallpaper, established in Islington back in 1860. In this image, we witness the meticulous process involved in creating these stunning designs. The scene takes place inside a bustling factory building where creativity fills the air. Men and women can be seen diligently working together to bring these intricate patterns to life. With their sleeves rolled up and focused expressions on their faces, they handle printing plates with precision and care. The legacy of William Morris is also evident as original blocks for his iconic wallpaper designs are present within the workshop. These timeless pieces serve as inspiration for future creations while paying homage to one of Britain's most influential designers. This snapshot not only showcases the craftsmanship behind handmade wallpapers but also provides a glimpse into an era when such techniques were still prevalent. It highlights the dedication and skill required to produce each roll of meticulously printed wallpaper that would adorn countless homes across England.
