EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Coverlet from New York, dating back to the mid-19th century. Created by an unknown artist, this exquisite piece of textile art is now housed in the prestigious Art Institute of Chicago. The coverlet, made from a combination of cotton and wool plain weave double cloth, features a seamless design that spans the full loom width. Its intricate jacquard weaving technique adds depth and complexity to the overall pattern. The vibrant red and white colors create a striking contrast against each other, while floral motifs delicately adorn every inch of the fabric. As we gaze upon this remarkable artifact, we are transported back in time to an era when craftsmanship was highly valued. This bedcover not only served as functional bedding but also showcased the artistic skills and creativity of its maker. With its rich heritage and historical significance, this coverlet offers us a glimpse into 19th-century America's artistry and cultural traditions. It serves as a reminder of our country's diverse artistic legacy. Through this photo print, we can appreciate both the beauty of this woven masterpiece and marvel at how it has withstood the test of time. As we admire its intricate details up close or display it proudly in our homes today, let us remember those skilled hands that brought forth such timeless elegance for generations to come.
