EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Silk Applique Quilt, created by Mildred Prince around 1936, showcases the intricate artistry and creativity of American decorative arts during the 1930s and 1940s. The quilt, which measures an impressive size, is adorned with a vibrant array of silk applique flowers, birds, and animals, skillfully sewn onto a white background. The use of silk fabric adds a luxurious and elegant touch to the quilt, making it a true standout piece. Mildred Prince's masterful needlework and design sense are on full display in this quilt, which features multicolored birds perched on branches, a flowerpot with blooming flowers, and a vase of flowers. The quilt also includes a patterned fabric border, adding an extra layer of visual interest. This quilt is a testament to the rich heritage of American folk art and the importance of preserving traditional crafts. It is a period item that transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past and the artistic traditions of the United States during the 20th century. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is fortunate to have this beautiful work of art in its collection, where it is preserved for future generations to appreciate. The quilt is not only a decorative piece but also a work of art, with its intricate details and thoughtful design. This watercolor and graphite on paper index card from Heritage Images provides a valuable record of this important work, which continues to inspire and captivate viewers with its colorful and intricate design.
