EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of artistry from 17th century Italy. The "Collar (Made from a Border)" is an exquisite example of decorative arts, created by an unknown artist during this period. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details and delicate craftsmanship that went into its creation. The collar, made from linen needle lace worked on a laid and plaited thread grid, features a symmetrical design adorned with floral motifs and foliate patterns. Against the contrasting black background, the white color of the collar stands out beautifully, emphasizing its elegance and sophistication. This antique textile object not only serves as a testament to Italy's rich artistic heritage but also offers insight into fashion trends of that era. Its patterned fabric reflects the meticulous attention given to clothing in 17th-century Italy. Displayed in an art gallery or institute such as the Art Institute Chicago, this photograph invites viewers to marvel at both the beauty of nature depicted through flowered plants and leaves within the collar's design and appreciate how it harmoniously blends with human creativity. While we may never know who specifically crafted this stunning piece, its timeless appeal continues to captivate audiences today. This image serves as a reminder of our connection to history through art and textiles – bridging centuries together in one frame.
