William Morris Animals Art Prints

Yes, and this is honestly where we think we shine. Every framed William Morris animal print ships as one piece: the print is properly fitted into a solid wood frame with UV-protective acrylic glaze, so there's no warping, no bubbling, and no fiddly assembly when it arrives. You literally take it out of the box and hang it. If you've been burned before by cheap frames that arrive separately or warp within weeks, this is the fix. Our frames are FSC-certified wood (no MDF), and the museum-grade giclée printing means the intricate detail in Morris's birds and foliage looks stunning up close.

Strawberry Thief, every time. It's Morris's most iconic animal design for good reason: the symmetrical thrushes and berry motifs have a natural sense of balance that anchors a wall without overwhelming it. We'd recommend a 70x100cm framed print centred above a standard sofa, ideally with 15-20cm of space between the frame and the sofa back. If your room already has warm tones (think terracotta cushions, wooden furniture), go with the original indigo colourway for contrast. It's the single most impactful William Morris wildlife print you can put on a wall.

Morris was obsessed with the birds and wildlife he observed in his gardens and the English countryside. You'll find thrushes (the famous Strawberry Thief), woodpeckers, peacocks, rabbits, foxes, and various songbirds woven throughout his work. These aren't stiff zoological illustrations; Morris embedded his animals into dense, flowing tapestries of leaves, flowers, and fruit. That layered quality is exactly why his animal art prints look so rich on a wall and reward you with new details the closer you get.

Absolutely, and Morris's designs are actually unusually well suited to grouping because they share a consistent colour palette and visual density. We'd suggest picking three prints (say, Strawberry Thief alongside a woodpecker and a peacock design) in matching frames, hung in a horizontal row with about 5cm between each frame. Keep them all the same size for a clean, intentional look. This works brilliantly along a hallway or above a sideboard in a dining room where you want visual impact without the commitment of one oversized piece.

Morris produced over 600 designs across textiles, wallpapers, tapestries, and tiles during his lifetime, and a significant number feature animals as central or supporting motifs. The most celebrated animal designs include Strawberry Thief, Bird, Woodpecker, Peacock and Dragon, Brother Rabbit, and Forest. Not every Morris design includes wildlife (many are purely botanical), so this collection specifically curates the ones that do. If you're drawn to the Arts and Crafts movement's relationship with nature, these William Morris animal art prints are the distilled best of his work in that vein.
