woodcut by William Morris
The Vleeptron Institute for Real Good Earth Art (VIRGEA) would be grateful if any reader knew for which project or publication William Morris carved this illustration. Dover released this wonderful book and CD with about 300 exquisite Morris images, but forgot to say which is which. And I sure as heck don't know.
Leave a comment, help Vleeptron, show what a high-class lady or guy you are.
Maybe it's for Morris' Kelmscott Chaucer, the complete works, illustrated, all the type hand-carved, of Geoffrey Chaucer.

Morris was a special fellow, painter, translator, poet, socialist/marxist (being a 19c country gent he could afford to be) with treaties on socialism and translations of norsk sagas under his belt.
This book has seen 3 editions, one during Morris' lifetime via Obelisk Books, one in the fifties and a recent one from a publisher who is specialized in facsimiles (les riches heures and stuff like that). Dunno about your book though.
The earliest version is definetly public domain, but so far I haven't located it at the usual sites like gutenberg or archive.org where you would expect to find public domain books.
Unless I am not going to the pub tonight I will search on, mainly because I want to see the other illustrations. I never managed to finish the Canterbury Tales on the grounds that this is a bloody difficult read, but this might be a good starting point.
