Large Scale, Jacquard Silk Ribbon Made to Mourn the Death of Lincoln ca 1866
Located in York County, PA
EXTRAORDINARY, JUMBO SCALE, JAQUARD-WOVEN, SILK RIBBON, MADE TO MOURN THE DEATH OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN, SIGNED & DATED BY THE MAKER, JORDAN TCHAPP, OF BASEL, SWITZERLAND, 1866:
Exceptional portrait of Abraham Lincoln. on woven, silk ribbon, made in the fashion of a Stevensgraph, signed & dated by Jordan Tchapp of Besel, Switzerland, 1866. Made for the American market, to mourn the death of America’s beloved, 16th president, Lincoln’s image is set within an oval window, crowned with a federal eagle, holding an olive branch in a gesture of peace. Beneath its wings, to each side, is an array of arrows, with shafts in the likeness of lightning bolts. The bird is perched on a billowing streamer that decorates the crest of a fanciful frame, with text that reads “With Charity to all, with malice for none.” [A slight and likely unintentional paraphrase of words taken from Lincoln’s second inaugural address: “With malice toward none, with charity for all.”]
To the left and right of America’s martyred commander-in-chief are 22 stars. If Tchapp designed the work in April of 1865, he may have been referencing the official number of stars on the flag, 35, less the 13 Confederate States. Likely, however, this count is also unintentional. The frame rests in the apex of crossed American flags with star counts of 13 and 15, respectively. These could be copied from an engraving of some sort, as could the remainder of the image. Lady...
