About the Item
A large Amish quilt of center bars pattern made from a striking combination of contrasting colors: light blue, maroon red and blush pink. Bordered with teal blue and backed with cotton. The seven bars in the center with alternate colors is confined in the thin pink border with four small squares that echo the larger ones in the outer corners. The iconic Amish composition is visually bold, amplified by the use of the colors. The surface areas feature subtle pierced stitches in scrolling feature motifs. The quilt was made in Amish County in Pennsylvania circa 1910-20s. It somehow strikes the viewer as a form of modern and abstract art
This quilt was purported purchased from Stella Rubin, a renowned dealer of antique quilt.
For an Amish quilt with similar pattern in the collection of International Quilt Museum at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

Published Large Nazca Wari Textile Panel with Geometrical Design Framed
Located in Atlanta, GA
A large Nazca-Wari woven textile panel known as Llika or Awayo (shawl) from Ica Valley on the south coast of nowadays Peru. Professionally mounted and conversed on a linen-backed wood frame and presented in an acrylic shadow box. Shawls with this step design were identified as made from the period of 700 to 1100 AD during the transitional period when Nazca went under the expanded rule of the Wari empire. The textile was finely woven from a camelid fiber dyed with natural pigments. The work strikes the viewer immediately with its unexpected modernity. The simple, bold and repetitive geometry with the scintillating color blocks created a lyrical visual rhythm and could easily mistake it as an abstract art from the 20th century. The step design was one of the unusual abstract motifs used by the pre-Columbian weavers from Nazca, who created some of the most mysterious and soul-stirring work with a minimalism aesthetic that was rarely seen in any other ancient textile art. Considering that the artists were completely isolated without the influences of other cultures, their intrinsic creativity and artistic vision are even more impressive.
