About the Item
An unusually fine and delicate, mid-19th American figural needlepoint showing an idyllic view of frontier life with a young girl reaching up on tiptoes towards a grape-laden vine on a tree bough that her mother is lowering within her reach. A detailed view beyond shows an expansive landscape with a water-mill standing beside a river beneath a clouded blue sky. An elegantly composed and finely-worked piece that breathes a natural and relaxed charm and retains much of its original, organic color.
Displayed in the original hand-made giltwood swept frame.

By Michael Thompson

Chicago-based artist Michael Thompson creates unique kites crafted from split bamboo frames covered with stretched muslin and a collage of vintage Asian ephemera—including fragments of fabric, scrolls, drawings, and books collected during his travels.
In “Furbelow II,” Thompson arranges scraps of Japanese silk to form a patchwork of contrasting pattern and color. Placed with balanced asymmetry, the panels of deep indigo and sheer silk create a dark, moody atmosphere reminiscent of a night sky.
