Marie Gudme Leth (1895-1997) was among the pioneers who, in the late 1920s, reintroduced fabric printing as a handicraft in Denmark. She created a number of classic fabric printing patterns that were extremely popular at the time, and are rediscovered, charm and fascinate today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe patterned fabrics were presented at the many handicraft exhibitions held throughout the country. She also participated in the wave of exhibitions abroad that presented Danish handicrafts with great success. Wherever she exhibited, her printed fabrics were received with great enthusiasm. She received a gold medal at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1937 and at the Triennale in Milan in 1951. Her work is a role model for many, not only because of the charming textile patterns, but also because she helped to form the foundation on which textile art still rests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKirsten Toftegaard has a Master's degree in history.
