A design for the costume for The Snowman by Arthur Sturgess performed at the Lyceum Theatre, London in 1899, the year after Crane had been appointed Principal of the Royal College of Art. Other costume designs by Crane for this production are in the Victoria and Albert Museum.

Primarily known as a book illustrator, Crane was also a decorator, designer of wallpapers, stained glass, textiles, carpets, tiles, pottery and metalwork, as well as a writer and lecturer on the theory of design.
