Parlor Throw, Illinois, c. 1890 - A Timeless Tapestry of Craftsmanship and Beauty
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the exquisite Parlor Throw from Illinois, created around 1890 by an unknown artist. Steeped in the rich heritage of American artistry, this stunning piece is a testament to the skill and creativity of its creator. The Parlor Throw is a true work of art that seamlessly combines various textile techniques. Its intricate design features appliqué, embroidery, patchwork quilt patterns, and dyed silk fabrics adorned with ribbons. The use of cotton and metallic embroidery threads adds depth and texture to this remarkable creation. As we gaze upon this vintage masterpiece, we are transported back to a bygone era - a time when needlework was not only functional but also served as decorative expression within homes across America. This Parlor Throw would have graced many bedrooms with its vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship. Its unique blend of plain satin pile fabrics alongside patterned weave textiles creates a visually striking composition that captures the essence of nineteenth-century aesthetics. Preserved for generations at the Art Institute Chicago's gallery space, this Parlor Throw stands as a testament to both the unknown artist's talent and our nation's artistic legacy. It serves as a reminder that even everyday objects like bedcovers can be transformed into extraordinary works through skilled hands guided by creative vision. Let us celebrate this remarkable piece as it embodies the spirit of American craftmanship while offering us glimpses into our past
