John Hall Thorpe
John Hall Thorpe was born in Australia, moving to London in 1902. There, he attended Heatherley's School of Art, where he developed his distinctive style of color woodblock printing using simple bright forms against a dark background. These prints were shown at a solo exhibition in 1918, and Hall Thorpe's work became increasingly popular during the interwar years as a statement of a new and modern approach to interior design and decoration.
