EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and meticulously crafted sampler, created by Harriot Augusta Raymond in the United States around 1819, is a captivating glimpse into the world of 19th-century American needlework. At just 15 years old, Raymond skillfully embroidered this family record on linen plain weave fabric using wool and silk threads in cross stitches. The sampler showcases an array of intricate designs, including a delicate floral pattern that adds a touch of elegance to the piece. The combination of colors used brings life and vibrancy to every stitch, creating a visually stunning work of art. Beyond its decorative appeal, this sampler holds great historical significance as it serves as both a personal and genealogical record for Raymond's family. The carefully stitched lettering provides details about her lineage and acts as a testament to the importance placed on preserving one's heritage during this time period. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago, this exquisite example of early American handicraft exemplifies the skill and creativity present within domestic arts during the 19th century. It stands as a testament to Raymond's talent as well as her dedication to preserving her family history through textile artistry. As we admire this remarkable piece today, we are reminded not only of its aesthetic beauty but also its role in documenting our shared cultural past.
