EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Applique Quilt, created by the talented Dorothy Posten in 1936. The quilt is a true representation of American folk art from the 1930s, reflecting the rich culture and craft of that era. With its vibrant colors and intricate floral patterns, this textile masterpiece instantly transports us to a bygone time. Posten's attention to detail is evident in every stitch and appliqued element of this quilt. The combination of red, green, yellow, and multi-colored fabrics creates a harmonious blend that catches the eye. Each flowered motif tells a story of dedication and skillful craftsmanship. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington as part of their Index of American Design collection, this artifact holds immense historical value. Its presence serves as a reminder of America's artistic heritage during the mid-20th century. The use of watercolor graphite and gouache on paper adds depth to this photo print, allowing us to appreciate Posten's work even more profoundly. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back in time to witness her creative process firsthand. Dorothy Posten's Applique Quilt stands as an enduring testament to her talent as well as America's rich tradition in quilting. It represents not only a decorative item but also an embodiment of artistry that continues to inspire generations today.
