The Little White Bear by Enid Marx
Originally written and illustrated by Enid Marx in 1945, The Little White Bear tells the tale of Ivan, the friendly polar bear, and his exciting adventures in the snow.
Enid Marx, FRSA (1902–1998) was an English painter and designer, who studied
at the Royal College of Art at the same time as Eric Ravilious and Edward Bawden,
under the tutelage of Paul Nash. Once living in Hampstead, she started her own
studio designing textiles – ultimately being chosen by the London Passenger
Transport Board to design the fabrics for the seats of the London buses and
underground. She designed book covers for the likes of Penguin, and wrote and
illustrated her own.
Marx eventually became Head of Department of Dress, Textiles and Ceramics at
Croydon College of Art. With her partner, Margaret Lambert, she developed a
unique collection of British folk art, which is now on display at Compton Verney Art
Gallery near Stratfordupon-Avon.
