The decorative circles featured in Gem Jive have been extracted from a Hansel and Gretel poster, commissioned by Wildsmith’s New York publisher in 1970. The hand painted circles have an imperfect quality which is something we like to celebrate at Liberty, where every print originates from an original artwork. The additional geometrics and decorative elements within the circles add an extra level of detail and depth to the design.

Capsule Collection AW24 - Wildsmith’s Wonderful World is a retrospective collection of designs inspired by the late illustrator and picture book creator, Brian Wildsmith. By combining Wildsmith’s imaginative and visually exciting style of storytelling with the Liberty Fabrics Designers’ expertise, our studio team have reimagined his portfolio of charming illustrations. From magnificent jungle creatures and swooping flocks of birds to playful London cityscapes and otherworldly outer-space illustrations, we invite you to experience the expansive magic of Wildsmith’s Wonderful World.

“ The stories in my paintings are about the world in which we live. Everything is living: animals, birds, bees, people, flowers and each has its own soul. I try to express that inner soul.” – Brian Wildsmith
