EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning quilt design, titled "Meadow Lily Variant," was created by American artist C.H. Hastings around 1937. The intricate piece, which measures approximately 27 x 31 inches, is a watercolor and graphite rendering on paperboard, rather than an actual textile quilt. Hastings' artistic interpretation showcases a vibrant meadow filled with lily flowers in various stages of bloom. The quilt's background is a rich, deep blue, providing a beautiful contrast to the lilies' delicate petals and stems. The Meadow Lily Variant is a captivating example of American decorative arts from the 20th century, specifically the 1930s and 1940s. This period, often referred to as the "Golden Age of American Quilting," saw a resurgence of interest in traditional quilting techniques and designs. Hastings' interpretation of the meadow lily pattern is a testament to this artistic movement. The quilt's intricate detail and use of color and pattern make it a standout piece in any art collection or gallery. Its location in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., as part of the Index of American Design, ensures its preservation and accessibility for future generations to appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship of this American art treasure. The Meadow Lily Variant is not only a work of art but also a reflection of the natural beauty and heritage of the United States. Its depiction of the meadow lily, a native flower, highlights the importance of nature in American art and culture during this period. Overall, this quilt design by C.H. Hastings is a must-see for anyone interested in American art, textiles, or the decorative arts.
