Poster artist of the month
Dora M Batty (1891-1966)
Dora M Batty was a prolific artist who created over 50 posters for London Transport in the 1920s and 30s. Her work wasn’t limited to transport - she also designed illustrations, advertisements, textiles and even ceramics. Beyond her artistic talents, Batty was also an educator, having taught textiles for many years.
Take a look at her remarkable career which features Art Deco posters and captivating nature themes, including the historical figure and Underground series, in our full story. You can also discover her influence on the design world and learn more about her signature style in our new permanent Global Poster Gallery.
