Print by Mila Schön

Milan

Mila Schön (1915-2008)

Once well-to-do,  Schön supported her family after a divorce by opening a fashion house in the late 1950s.

This print is probably one of a series Schön did

that was influenced by color field painter Kenneth Noland

Kenneth Noland, Lovely Rosa, 1983

 Schön's prints and patchwork clothing will

be featured in an exhibit

The Glamour of Italian Fashion at the 

Victoria and Albert Museum

in London from

April 5 through July 27, 2014
