EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th century textile piece, titled "Curtain, Germany, 1889/90," is a testament to the artistic ingenuity of Elise Grill. The intricately designed curtain is a masterpiece of plain weave open work with knotted weft wrapping, featuring a beautiful combination of linen and cotton strips of plain weave. The modernist design is further enhanced by the use of joined cotton crochet and crocheted borders. Grill's innovative approach to weaving is evident in the alternating weft float weave and plain weave with bands of weft floats, creating a visually captivating texture. The red and white color palette adds a pop of vibrancy against the soft, natural tones of the linen. Originating from Germany, this curtain is a prime example of European textile heritage art. Its intricate patterns and meticulous craftsmanship make it a valuable addition to any art centre, art gallery, or art institute. The use of plain weave and alternating weft float weave techniques, as well as the crossed wefts, showcase the skill and creativity of the artist. This textile piece is not only a functional object, but also a work of art in its own right. Its striped design and red and white color scheme make it a versatile addition to any interior decor, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to any space. The curtain's rich history and intricate design make it a must-have for textile enthusiasts and collectors alike.
