Les Sylphides

Eileen Mayo is an artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Eileen Mayo made prints in the 1920s, mostly small black-and-white works that feel sharp and spare at a glance. In *Les Sylphides* she turns a ballet backstage into crisp lines and quiet shadows, while another print shows a city corner reduced to its simplest shapes. These tiny prints belong to the wider English printmaking scene of the late 1920s, when artists favored direct cuts and bold contrasts. Tap into *Les Sylphides* to see how Mayo built whole moods from just a few etched strokes.
