EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a stunning example of a Carpet Strip from the late 19th century to early 20th century, hailing from the United States. The exact creator of this intricate work of art remains unknown, adding to its allure and mystery. The Carpet Strip is a testament to the rich textile heritage of America during this period. The Carpet Strip is a unique form of woven textile, featuring a complex design that showcases both tied and free plain weave double cloth. The use of wool as the primary material adds to its durability and warmth, making it a popular choice for soft furnishings during this era. The carpet is adorned with a vibrant and intricate pattern, which was likely achieved through the use of a jacquard loom attachment. The Carpet Strip's design is a reflection of the artistic sensibilities and craftsmanship of the time, with its rich colors and intricate patterns. The use of the jacquard loom allowed for a high degree of complexity in the design, resulting in a visually stunning piece that continues to captivate viewers today. This Carpet Strip is now a cherished addition to the textile collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is preserved and showcased for future generations to appreciate and study. Its presence in the gallery serves as a reminder of the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the United States during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
