About MeDecorative design was a major part of Duncan Grant's output and in 1922 he set up an interior decorations and design company, with Vanessa Bell. The flat patterning and sometimes naive style that Grant employed in his decorative work tended to be quite divergent from his easel paintings.

This watercolour sketch is a preliminary costume design for a court lady in the ballet 'The Enchanted Grove'.
