The Director of the Museum Sir Eric MacLagan decided that this suite ‘should be temporarily exhibited in the North Court of the Museum in connection with the Exhibition of the work of William Morris now being held there; as they would illustrate typical furniture of the period when he [Morris] was himself attempting to furnish his first house on very different lines’ (Letter to Miss F. Bentley, 28 February 1934).
