Duncan Grant, born in 1885, was a British painter and member of artist/intellectual collective the Bloomsbury Group. He was particularly influenced by fellow member and esteemed art critic Roger Fry, with whom he worked on several occasions. Grant was well known for his highly developed painting style, though he was also a designer of textiles and carpets.
Grant’s painting showed evidence of his artistic schooling, half French – he attended La Palette from 1906-7 – and half British – he returned to London later that year to spend a term at the Slade. His work was well received, exhibiting work at the Venice Biennale in 1926 and 1932. A major retrospective was held at the Tate Gallery in 1959 and again in 1975. Grant died 3 years later.

About the Work
Coloured pastel with pen, ink and pencil on paper.
Preparatory colour study for the lithograph of the same name.
Published by Observer Art; a publishing venture started by the British Sunday newspaper The Observer. They had discovered that Bloomsbury artist Duncan Grant was still active and living alone in Charleston. Observer Art felt that Grant had been ignored for too long so approached him with the idea of producing lithographs for publication.
In December 1972 Stanley Jones of Curwen Studio was commissioned by Observer Art to work with Grant to realise the project which resulted in 3 lithographs; Washerwoman being one of them.
Blind stamped from the archive of Curwen Master Printer, Stanley Jones.
