Nancy Nicholson

Nancy Nicholson (1899-1977) was a painter and fabric designer.

She was sister to Ben Nicholson and daughter of the artist Sir William Nicholson. Nancy married Robert Graves in 1918 (the marriage eventually broke down, as Graves took up with Laura Riding).

Nancy Nicholson was involved during the 1930s with the Poulk Press, with Geoffrey Phibbs. She collaborated at this time with Ben and Barbara Hepworth on textiles. Her designs influenced her sister-in-law EQ Nicholson.
