Liberty Lady Kristina Cushion, Golden Globe

Lady Kristina has been adapted from an archive document within a series of exquisite hand painted artworks created for Liberty in the 1920s and '30s. These sumptuous tree of life designs were used for various textiles including cushions, throws and kimonos. This print embodies the cinema room in the Cabinet House and was suitably selected for the collection by celebrated actor, Sir Roger Moore. Soon after opening on London's Regent Street in 1875, trading exotic goods and textiles from the Far East, Arthur Liberty began working with local artisans and manufacturers to produce Liberty's own textiles and objets d'art. By the 1890s Liberty Art Fabrics were a byword for the very best of Avant Garde textile design.
