Greek No.6 1856

"Greek No. 6" is a design plate from 1856 by Owen Jones, an English architect and designer known for his revival of classical and Islamic decorative motifs. This plate features a collection of stylized, geometric Greek-inspired patterns in black on a red background. These intricate designs, with their use of spirals, leaves, and stylized floral elements, are reminiscent of ancient Greek ornament, reflecting Jones's interest in historical styles and his belief in the importance of decorative art.
