Lunchtime Lecture: Anna Maria Garthwaite

Anna Maria Garthwaite transformed 18th-century Spitalfields silk by introducing the logic of painting into the loom — producing some of the most celebrated British textiles of her era from her studio on Princelet Street. Dr Silvija Banić presents a lunchtime lecture at the V&A to mark a new acquisition: the loom's legacy, returned to the room.
