Biography:-
Francis Orpen
Morris was born on 25 March 1810, the eldest son of Admiral Henry
Gage Morris, near Cork. His father was on active service on the
Royal Navy's Irish station. His mother, Rebecca, was the youngest
daughter of the Rev. Francis Orpen, vicar of Kilgarvan, county
Kerry. The family moved to England in 1824, living in Worcester,
and then from 1826, in Charmouth, Dorset ( near Lyme Regis ). His
interest in natural history began whilst a pupil at Bromsgrove
School begining to collect birds and insects.After leaving school
in 1828 and, following a year with a private tutor, went up to
Worcester College Oxford the following in 1829. He read Classics,
obtained his BA in 1833. However, much of his time as a student was
spent in the study of natural history, and one of his part-time
tasks included arranging the collection of insects in the Ashmolean
Museum.
His
first book had appeared as
early as 1834, A guide to an arrangement of British birds. However,
his association with Benjamin Fawcett, a local printer, was to have
remarkable results, particularly for the study of ornithology.
Benjamin Fawcett was one of the finest of the nineteenth century
woodblock colour printers. Born in Bridlington in December 1808, he
was the son of a ship's master. At the age of 14 he was apprenticed
for seven years to William Forth, a Bridlington bookseller and
printer. In 1831 he set up in business as a bookseller, bookbinder,
music seller, printer and stationer, in Middle Street, Driffield.
In 1830 he married Mary Ann Woodmansey, and they had two sons
before her death in 1834. In 1848 he married Martha Porter, and
they eventually had four daughters and six sons.
Many
of his early printing
projects were childrens' books published by Webb & Millington
of Leeds. His first association with FO Morris was in 1844 or 1845,
and was to last nearly 50 years. Morris produced the text for books
which Fawcett financed and printed, which were usually illustrated
by AF (Frank) Lydon (1836-1917), who had started as one of
Fawcett's apprentices. Unlike the earlier work of Thomas Bewick
(1753-1828), printing was in colour. This was initially achieved by
hand colouring wood-engraved illustrations, and later by printing
in colours from multiple wood blocks. Most of the works were
published by Groombridge, of London. Their first collaboration was
probably Bible natural history, issued in sixpenny monthly parts in
1849, and completed in 1850. But their first great success was A
History of British birds, work on which probably began in 1848.
Publication, which took over seven years to complete from June
1850, was undertaken in monthly parts costing one shilling. Each
part contained 24 pages of letterpress and 4 hand-coloured plates.
The final six volume work contained 358 coloured plates. One
thousand copies of the first part were initially produced, but such
was the demand that Fawcett quickly had to move into larger
premises (East Lodge, Driffield). Birds was quickly followed by A
natural history of the nests and eggs of British birds and A
history of British butterflies, followed later by A history of
British moths. The last collaboration between Fawcett, Morris and
Lydon was The county seats of the Noblemen and Gentlemen of Great
Britain and Ireland. This again ran to six volumes, each with 40
coloured plates, and text by Morris. The firm of Groombridge failed
in about 1880, and it appears that neither Fawcett nor Morris made
much money from their joint ventures.
