Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Morris, and Edward Burne-Jones at Red Lion Square, Bloomsbury: Literary London: #19

17 Red Lion Square. 'In this house in 1951 lived Dante Gabriel Rossetti Poet and Painter and from 1856 to 1859 William Morris Poet and Artist and Sir Edward C. Burne-Jones Painter'.

When Morris moved in there was no furniture, so he and Burne-Jones made furniture after the medieval fashion that was later to become his hallmark style.

Morris didn't live in Queen Square. He lived in Red Lion Square as your picture shows
