EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of American heritage - the Bedcover (Nine Patch Quilt), created in the United States between 1800 and 1820. The anonymous creator's artistry is evident in this stunning patchwork quilt, which exemplifies the rich tradition of textile craftsmanship during the 19th century. The quilt's intricate design features a symmetrical arrangement of nine-patch blocks, each showcasing different floral patterns. These delicate motifs were meticulously block printed and roller printed onto cotton fabric, resulting in a vibrant burst of color that adds warmth to any bedroom. The bedcover is not only visually appealing but also serves as a testament to the skillful weaving techniques employed at that time. It is lined with various plain weaves of cotton, enhancing its durability and comfort. As an object steeped in history, this bedcover offers us a glimpse into early American domestic life. Its decorative nature reflects both personal taste and cultural influences prevalent during that era. Displayed proudly at the Art Institute Chicago, this unique artwork invites viewers to appreciate the beauty found within everyday objects while honoring unknown artisans who contributed to America's artistic legacy.
