He was a British artist and designer, known particularly for his work on ceramic tiles. John Moyr Smith was a major but little-researched figure in the design reform movement whose work ranged from ironwork, furniture, pottery, wallpaper and lace curtains to carpets. The large number of designs he made for Messrs Minton included drawing on the metal plates for the following series of tiles: Shakespeare, Tennyson's Idylls of the King, Waverley, Thomson's Seasons, Old Testament, New Testament, Fairy Tales, The Trades, The Months, Anacreon, English History, Music and Sciences. He designed and illustrated tiles, in the Arts & Crafts tradition, for Minton in the 1870s. Minton's was a major company in Staffordshire pottery, and was Europe's foremost ceramic factory during Victorian times. His series of tiles are known for their intricate scenes, often telling stories e. g. from Shakespeare's plays, the Bible, the Morte D'Arthur, the Arabian Nights and Aesop's Fables, and include a Nursery Rhymes series e. g. 'Humpty Dumpty Sat on a Wall'; Shakespeare Series: such as Twelfth Night; and the Idylls of the King Series. John Moyr Smith's tiles are now becoming very much collected, with individual rare tiles fetching high prices. ***This particular book of etchings, showing 'British Courtship' through the ages could have been intended to be used for a series of tiles to decorate the surround of a Victorian fireplaced. ***Only one copy of the first edition of 'British Courtship' by Moyr Smith' is recorded on COPAC, being held at The British Library. This first edition is particularly scarce, being dated and inscribed by Moyr Smith. These etchings may have been intended for but never used for tiles. ***Of interest to antiquarians and tile ceramist historians and collectors, and anyone who wants to acquire an original set of etchings to be used for designs on a original set of tiles for a unique fireplace in their home. Ultra scarce.***. Inscribed by Author(s).
