Herbert Percy Horne (1864 in London [1] – 1916 in Florence, Italy) was an English poet, architect, typographer and designer, art historian and antiquarian. He was an associate of the Rhymers' Club in London. He edited the magazines The Century Guild Hobby Horse and The Hobby Horse for the Century Guild of Artists, which he founded with fellow architect Arthur Heygate Mackmurdo in 1882.[2]
Representative book design by Herbert Horne. (Against War by Erasmus, Merrymount Press, printed 1908).
Horne was closely associated with Arthur Symons and Selwyn Image and their mistress Muriel (Edith) Broadbent.[3] Later in life he settled in Florence, restoring a Renaissance palazzo into which he eventually moved. He first visited Italy in 1889 and kept an illustrated journal of his travels and art and architectural research. His monograph on Sandro Botticelli from 1908 is still recognised as of exceptional quality and thoroughness.
