In 1887, William De Morgan, an Arts and Crafts ceramic designer, married Pre-Raphaelite painter Evelyn Pickering in London, and throughout their marriage, the couple encouraged one another in their respective artistic pursuits. Much about the De Morgans' marriage went against the grain, and this exhibition, drawn entirely from the collection of the De Morgan Foundation in the United Kingdom, explores the fruits of this union.
