Owen Jones's "Moresque No. 4c" from 1856 showcases the artist's fascination with Islamic geometric patterns. This intricate design, featuring a repetitive motif of interlacing stars and geometric shapes, exemplifies the intricate details and vibrant colors characteristic of Moorish art. Jones's interest in Islamic architecture and decorative arts led him to create a series of designs, including this one, which served as inspiration for textile designs, furniture, and interior design in the Victorian era. His work helped to popularize the "Moresque" style, influencing designers and architects in Europe and beyond.
