Wallpaper from William Morris & Co. The pattern "Strawberry Thief" was designed in 1883 and is one of Morris's most famous. He got the inspiration for the pattern when he discovered thrushes stealing fruit in the kitchen garden of his house in the Oxfordshire countryside. The result was a pattern filled with birds and strawberries among leaves and flowers.
