Archibald Knox was born in Tromode, Isle of Man and became a designer for London’s famous Liberty and Co.  He was inspired by the unique interlaced motifs of Manx carvings and Celtic manuscripts, and became an influential designer of the Art Nouveau movement.  Towards the end of his life he returned to the Isle of Man and taught others how to capture the beauty of their homeland.
