According to a Google blog, the doodle—created by London-based illustrator Louise Pomeroy—was designed to celebrate Woolf's "minimalist style."

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was a British writer of novels and essays. Some of her most famous works are Mrs Dalloway, To The Lighthouse, A Room of One's Own, and Orlando. Woolf is regarded as one of the most influential modernists of the twentieth century, and one of the first novelists to use stream of consciousness as a literary device.

As the Google blog notes, Woolf's nonfiction works—including A Room of One’s Own—demonstrated her "unflinching feminist perspective," and explored women of the age's struggle for independence.

Pomeroy surrounded Woolf's iconic profile with autumn leaves, a "frequent visual theme" in her work.

The Google blog also showed the illustrator's early sketches, in which she toyed with various different designs for the doodle.
