The De Morgan Collection

The De Morgan Foundation owns and cares for the De Morgan Collection, an unparalleled collection of ceramics and oil paintings by William and Evelyn De Morgan. The husband and wife duo were key proponents of the Arts and Crafts Movement in the late 19th and early 20th Century. The De Morgan Foundation is a registered, independent charity that receives no revenue funding from the government. All income goes towards managing the care of the De Morgan Collection, loans, tours, research and educational activities. The De Morgan Foundation has its own museum at Cannon Hall Museum in Barnsley, as well as long-term partnership arrangements with a number of museums and galleries across the UK. Major loans from the De Morgan Collection are on display at The Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, Watts Gallery in Guildford, and Wightwick Manor (National Trust) in Wolverhampton, as well as loans of artworks to other arts and heritage institutions nationally and internationally.
