Modern Print Monday: Enid Marx

Rope 
Enid Marx
England

Enid Marx (1908-1992) hand printed textiles and eventually became an industrial designer in London. "Rope" must have originated as one of her hand-printed woodblock designs.

The Victoria & Albert Museum has several pieces of her work. Do a search for her name:
