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