* Morrell (Ottoline, 1873-1938). A large needlework panel embroidered by Lady Ottoline Morrell, circa 1915/16, densely worked all over in bright polychrome silk threads using mainly long and short stitch and french knots, with a profusion of large flowers and leaves, including sunflowers, carnations, tulips, daffodils, and roses, a few loose threads, on a beige cotton ground with machine-stitched centre join, ground perishing in places and expertly consolidated with stitching by The Royal School of Needlework in 2009 (mainly to lower left-hand edge - latter also sustaining a few minor losses to embroidery), brass rings on linen tabs for hanging to top corners, approximately 195 x 173 cm (77 x 68 ins)QTY: (1)NOTE:Provenance: Lady Ottoline Morrell (1873-1938); her daughter Julian Vinogradoff (née Morrell, 1906-1989); thence by descent.An extraordinarily vibrant coverlet, worked by Lady Ottoline Morrell whilst living at Garsington Manor, Oxfordshire, during the First World War, and later hung on the walls of Julian's home, Broughton Grange, near Banbury, Oxfordshire. Philip and Ottoline Morrell moved into the beautiful old manor house of Garsington in 1915, and held court there for over a decade to a coterie of avant-garde painters, writers and philosophers who became known as the Bloomsbury Group. Amongst the numerous visitors - many of them long-staying house guests - were D.H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf, Duncan Grant, Mark Gertler, Vanesa Bell, T.S. Eliot, Aldous Huxley, Dora Carrington, and E.M. Forster. Reacting against the conventional mores of the Victorians, the Garsington set embraced pacifism, feminism and sexual freedom, Ottoline writing in her diary in 1915 'conventionality is deadness'.In many ways, this needlework is an embodiment of those impulses. It decries the usual rules of form and colour found in Victorian and Edwardian embroidery: the pattern appears to take shape on the fabric anamorphously; a wide, almost clashing, colour palette is used; and startlingly unexpected hues appear, so that, for example, daffodils are depicted in shades of blue and purple, and carnations are multi-coloured.Like the coverlet Ottoline was flamboyant, unexpected, and colourful in all aspects of her life. She favoured brightly coloured clothes in highly original designs which differed both from the fashions of the day and the more bohemian styles worn by some. The interior of the home she made at Garsington was described as a 'fluttering parrot-house of greens, reds and yellows', which was filled with Persian carpets, Chinese boxes and cabinets, beautiful porcelain, silk hangings, lacquered screens, and ornate mirrors: 'the walls were painted a rich Venetian red and iridescent sea green: colours chosen from the palette at Bolsover Castle - an estate within the family that Ottoline had visited as a child' (Miranda Seymour, Ottoline Morrell: Life on a Grand Scale, 1992, p.35). Perhaps the aspect of Ottoline's life most mirrored in the embroidery - for obvious reasons - is the garden she created at Garsington. Although a formal Italiante garden, it was dense with colour, as she herself described: 'I felt so happy watching the flowers - the brown ringed sunflowers, the red hot pokers, the phlox and montbretia, the zinnias and marigolds all crowded together in luxurious company.'While stylistically this panel is all one might expect from the needle of a woman such as Lady Ottoline, the manner of its creation is also symbolic of the life she led. Juliette Huxley, wife of Julian, described how she and her sister-in-law Maria, wife of Aldous Huxley, contributed to the sewing of the coverlet, whilst being read to by Bertrand Russell, with whom Ottoline was having an affair: 'Ottoline sat in the armchair under the wide-shaded lamp, smoking cigarettes and sucking peppermints at the same time, with some handwork she was engaged on. It could have been crocheting one of the many-coloured counterpanes, or embroidering the coverlet she describes in her book; Bertie in the corner, reading aloud the Causerie du Lundi, by Sainte-Beuve, in his faultless accent, vividly, absorbingly; Maria and I .. contributing to that coverlet of exploding flowers, for which Ottoline had an array of exquisite silks to choose from, all designed from an Italian fragment ...'.Ottoline's own words about the making of the bedcover corroborate this scene of intellectual and spiritual conviviality: "I sat in my special chair under the lamp with a piece of embroidery and all my coloured silks spread out around me. Maria, when at home, sitting at my feet and she would be allowed to embroider a flower in one corner of the vast bedspread on which I was at work, Juliette at another corner. How much is woven in that coverlet! How intense the feelings as we worked at it. What interesting and vital ideas were blended with the silks and woven into the pattern of gay flowers. Some flowers must be bright with poetry, some dark and smudged with war; others vivid and bizarre with thoughts of life; and a lovely rose will always speak of the fragile beauty of love and friendship, and a sunflower was like one that grew in the garden with thoughts of Blake's 'weary of time'. Maria's flowers are red and sensual. Juliette's gay and multi-coloured, but perhaps rather too pretty." (Juliette Huxley Leaves of the Tulip Tree, John Murray, 1986, p.46)In 1916 Lady Ottoline wrote of Garsington Manor: ‘The house has all the magic thrill to me, even tho’ I have lived within its walls and it has become absolutely familiar to me, pressed so near that we almost seem one. I have interpenetrated the house - vivified it - filled it with flaring orange - and reds and greens - filled it with myself - my thoughts - actions.' (Lady Ottoline Papers, Univeristy of Maryland, USA)
