EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Pillow Sham from England, dating back to approximately 1720. Crafted by an unknown creator, this exquisite piece of art is now housed in the prestigious Art Institute of Chicago. The pillow sham reflects the artistic brilliance and craftsmanship prevalent during the 18th century in Britain. Its vibrant colors and intricate design are a testament to the rich heritage of European textiles. The fabric used for this masterpiece is a combination of silk floss and silk yarns, skillfully embroidered using techniques such as back herringbone running stitches and satin stitches. Every detail on this pillow sham tells a story - from the meticulously laid work couching to the delicate French knots that add depth and texture. The patterned linen underlay enhances its visual appeal while showcasing expert weaving skills. This artwork not only serves as an object of beauty but also offers insights into English culture at that time. It provides us with a glimpse into bedroom decor and bedclothes popular among British households during the 18th century. As we admire this extraordinary creation, let us appreciate both its aesthetic value and historical significance. This print allows us to cherish an era long gone while celebrating the timeless beauty found within textile arts.
