The tanpit

BRANGWYN, Sir Frank William (Brangwyn was born in Bruges to an Anglo-Welsh father and Welsh mother from Brecon. The family moved back to Britain and by the age of fifteen Brangwyn was studying under designer and socialist William Morris. As he became successful as a painter, etcher and lithographer, Brangwyn began to travel widely across the world. He had an international reputation at the time of the First World War and was a member of the Senefelder Club, which promoted the medium of lithography.)
