Zika Ascher came to England from Prague in 1939 and in 1942 he established his own production company and silk-screen printers in London. Together with his wife Lida, he sought to unite the complex worlds of fabrics, art and fashion. Throughout the 1940s they established a working relationship with many of the most prominent British artists of the day, commissioning designs by Henry Moore, Dame Barbara Hepworth, Graham Sutherland, Ben Nicholson, John Piper, as well as international artists such as Calder, Derain, Cocteau and Picasso.
