EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Coverlet, Indiana, 1853" created by Matthew Rattray. Stepping back in time to the 19th century America, this artwork is a testament to the rich heritage and craftsmanship of that era. The coverlet itself is a magnificent blend of wool and cotton double cloth, meticulously woven on a loom with a jacquard attachment. Its intricate design features an array of vibrant colors and floral patterns that effortlessly draw the eye into its mesmerizing beauty. Birds take center stage in this masterpiece as an eagle, a majestic bird of prey, spreads its wings across the fabric. Symbolizing strength and freedom, it adds an element of grandeur to the overall composition. Every detail speaks volumes about Rattray's skillful artistry and attention to detail. The two loom widths joined together seamlessly create a seamless flow throughout the piece while showcasing his technical expertise. Displayed proudly in an art gallery or museum such as the Art Institute Chicago, this coverlet represents not only artistic expression but also serves as a window into history. It offers us insight into life during that period - from textile production techniques to decorative objects used in everyday settings like bedrooms or bedchambers. Matthew Rattray's creation stands as both an object of admiration for its visual appeal and as a valuable artifact representing United States' cultural heritage.
