NEW SCARLET LETTER SARAH BRIGNELL 1769 SILK Cross Stitch Sampler Kit Vtg Gift

NEW SCARLET LETTER SARAH BRIGNELL 1769 SILK Cross Stitch Sampler Kit Vintage Gift. Perfect for your use or as a special gift! New Scarlet Letter SILK Sarah Brignell 1769. From the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. Historic Reproduction Samplers from The Scarlet letter. Try as we might, we cannot find another sampler to compare with this one by Sarah Brignell. It is a sampler unto itself: truly an original piece of folk art. The tiny central cartouche with the densely stitched scene floats like a little world unto itself in the midst of the exuberant garden of flowers vining around all four sides. This is what we try to seek out in our samplers for reproduction: the unique, the genius that shines through, the personal expression that goes beyond the stock art form, that retains its brilliance over the centuries. Samplers are vastly more than mere alphabetical exercises in monotony. Here is an example of sampler art at its finest. Package may have signs of storage wear (scratches, scuffs, creases, discoloration, etc). Kit only frame not included. Please see pictures as they are part of the description (some may be lightened to show detail). Please see the images of the actual item above for a better idea of the condition. As we add new items every week! All measurements are approximate. Thank you for looking at this great Scarlett Letter Needlework!
