They were perhaps the most influential partnership of the era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother artist who enjoyed block\u003cbr\u003eprinting was Enid Marx (1902-1998): Starting her career as an apprentice to Barron and Larcher, Marx became a prolific printmaker known for her joyful, abstract patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece may or may not be from one of these artists, it’s certainly been made by someone who is an accomplished block printing artist, and came from an Arts and Crafts house in Somerset, England.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hannah Whyman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57307097366901,"sku":null,"price":585.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/8080\/1179\/files\/1D7C4B00-277E-400C-ABDE-5700F17CD462.jpg?v=1781936727","url":"https:\/\/hannahwhyman.co.uk\/products\/antique-english-arts-and-crafts-block-printed-panel-c1910-20-britain","provider":"Hannah Whyman","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
