Reading about the accelerating decline in wild bird species in the UK made us think of this fellow.

Multi-Lustre Dodo Tile by William De Morgan (1898)
The dodo is an extinct flightless bird from Mauritius and was popularised by Lewis Carol who featured it in 'Alice in Wonderland'.

To protect them from too much light exposure we’re changing some of Evelyn De Morgan’s drawings in our Guildhall Art Gallery exhibition at the beginning of August. Next week is your last change to see them before they go back in store for some time.

🐰 Hopping into Easter with William De Morgan’s energetic rabbit/hare designs. 🐇
