Mary Annie Sloane (10 December 1867 – 30 November 1961) was an English artist associated with the Arts and Crafts movement. She was born in Leicester, an area which was the subject of many of her prints. She studied at Leicester School of Art and was taught etching and engraving by Hubert von Herkomer in his school at Bushey, and later studied under Francis Job Short at the Royal College of Art. She lived for many years in the village of Enderby, Leicestershire, where she made a number of etchings of weavers, a traditional craft practised there as well as other subjects.〔(Mary Annie Sloane ) gallery biography〕 She became a close friend of May Morris, William Morris's daughter, and lived with her for a while in Majorca, and later took over the lease of May’s house at 8 Hammersmith Terrace, near Kelmscott House. She was a member and Honorary Secretary of the Women’s Guild of Arts that May Morris founded in 1907. She was a frequent visitor to William Morris's houses where she met other members of the Arts and Crafts movement.〔(Mary Annie Sloane of Hammersmith Terrace – Painter and Printmaker ) Exhibition details and biography〕 She exhibited at the Royal Academy and the Paris Salon, but few of her works were published.
