Title Page for Tennyson's Maud
William Morris
TITLE PAGES This drawing by William Morris is accompanied by the following note: "The design herewith being the original design by William Morris for title page of Tennyson's "Maud" was given me by him as a memento of the completion of the Kelmscott press edition." Signed Halliway Sparling/ 168 Quai d'Auteuil/ Paris. June 3, 1900. Nearly all the title pages prepared by Morris for his Kelmscott Press were deposited in the British Museum in London. This is one of the very few to be outside that London museum.
