Crane, born in 1845, was a multifaceted artist known for his illustrations, paintings, and designs that often carried a narrative or allegorical significance. His work was deeply influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the medieval revival, which is evident in the thematic and stylistic choices in his frieze decorations.
