About MeAlthough mainly preoccupied with painting and interior décor, Bloomsbury artist Duncan Grant often designed for the theatre.

In 1913 he was invited to Paris to design an adaptation of 'Twelfth Night'; 'La Nuit des rois' by Theodore Lascaris and in 1917 designed the costumes for 'Pelléas et Mélisande' (1917) for Jacques Copeau, co-founder with André Gide of the journal 'la Nouvelle Revue Française'. During the 1920s Grant designed a ballet, 'The Enchanted Grove', for Rupert Doone, with music by Ravel.
