EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a stunning pair of Needlework Bed Hangings, dating back to the late 17th century. Created around 1690 in France by an unknown artist, these exquisite pieces of heritage art are a testament to the skill and craftsmanship of their time. The intricate embroidery work on these bed hangings is executed using petit point technique, which involves creating tiny stitches with silk and wool threads. The delicate floral motifs and ornate patterns beautifully adorn the rich fabric, transporting us back to a bygone era. Displayed at The Cleveland Museum of Art, this remarkable pair of needlework bed hangings holds its own as an extraordinary example of historical textile artistry. Its preservation allows us to appreciate and admire the talent and dedication that went into its creation over three centuries ago. Heritage Images has captured this masterpiece through their lens, allowing viewers to marvel at every fine detail. This print serves as a reminder not only of our rich artistic heritage but also highlights the importance of preserving such cultural treasures for future generations.
