This woman had been unidentified for years, until a bloke named John Eaton, spotted her on an advert for Community Silverplate Cutlery. Turns out, she is a teacher.
She is part of En Morn (1947), by Kurt Schwitters.
The square is cut from the little booklet that accompanied the exhibition, ‘Schwitters In Britain’ (2013) at Tate Britain.
