Agnes Margareta Matilda Branting (27 February 1862 – 13 April 1930, Stockholm)[1] was a Swedish textile artist and writer. As director of the Friends of Handicraft association from 1891, she undertook developments in large woven tapestries with several prominent artists which led to Sweden's freestyle woven visual art. In 1904, she established the Licium workshop which produced religious and heraldic fabrics including flags and banners. She was also active in the preservation of textiles, establishing the Pietas society for this purpose. As a writer, she contributed articles on arts and crafts to Svenska Dagbladet and published books on textiles.[2][3]
