This photograph captures a collection of intricately woven carpet fragments from the United States, dating back to the 1860s. The exact creator of these stunning textiles remains unknown, adding to their allure and mystery. The carpet fragments showcase a variety of designs, each one unique in its pattern and motif. The dominant motif appears to be a scroll design, which was a popular choice during the nineteenth century in America. The carpets display a rich tapestry of colors and hues, reflecting the artistic sensibilities of the time. The soft furnishings were likely made of wool, a common material for weaving due to its durability and warmth. The main warp fringe and tied and free double cloth weaving techniques used in creating these carpets are evident in the photograph, showcasing the skill and craftsmanship of the weaver. These carpet fragments offer a glimpse into the heritage of American art and design during the nineteenth century. Their intricate patterns and vibrant colors continue to captivate and inspire, making them a valuable addition to any art collection or gallery. The Carpet Fragments, United States, 1860/80, are a testament to the rich textile history of the United States and serve as a reminder of the beauty and artistry that can be found in the smallest of objects.
