From the Back Cover
The Omega Workshops recounts for the first time the full story of the Bloomsbury Group's venture into interior decoration and furniture design. Founded in 1913 by British painter and critic Roger Fry, partly from philanthropic concern for impecunious young artists and partly in despair at the taste of the British public, the Omega workshops were to bring together art and industry to create murals, furniture, pottery, textiles, and clothing.
