The Kelmscott Press, founded by William Morris and Emery Walker, published fifty-three books in sixty-six volumes between 1891 and 1898. Each book was designed and ornamented by Morris and printed by hand in limited editions of around 300. Many books were illustrated by Edward Burne-Jones. Kelmscott Press books sought to replicate the style of 15th-century printing and were part of the Gothic revival movement. Kelmscott Press started the contemporary fine press movement, which focuses on the craft and design of bookmaking, often using hand presses. While their most famous books are richly decorated, most Kelmscott Press books did not have elaborate decoration, but were published simply.

  • The Kelmscott Press was een Engelse drukkerij en uitgeverij, opgericht door William Morris, bekend van de Arts-and-craftsbeweging. In 1891 begon Morris met een van zijn laatste projecten; het drukken van boeken met een hoge kwaliteit. Hij had zich al lang geërgerd aan de slechte kwaliteit van het drukwerk in zijn leven. Hij streefde naar een drukkerij die de pracht van de middeleeuwse drukkers, zoals onder andere William Caxton, zou benaderen. (nl)
