<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Darkwing Manor, post: 4270552, member: 738&quot;]You almost missed the party, Leslie! I understand the &quot;feel&quot; you have about this one. The over-sized florals are evocative of some 17th and 18th century embroidered panels I have seen in the Ginsburg Collection. Of course, I couldn&#039;t find a comparable image, but here&#039;s as close as I could get. Attributed by Cora Ginsburg, LLC as Philadelphia early 18th c. <a href="https://www.coraginsburg.com/catalogues/2007/CoraGinsburgCostumeTextilesCat2007.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.coraginsburg.com/catalogues/2007/CoraGinsburgCostumeTextilesCat2007.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://www.coraginsburg.com/catalogues/2007/CoraGinsburgCostumeTextilesCat2007.pdf</a></p><p>Even so, oversize florals are still around in the A&amp;C period, eg. any Wm Morris fabric. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie13" alt=":angelic:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>But THEN, the ship image fast-forwarded me right back to the 20th century. Until I found this, Spanish alter cloth panel, 16th c.</p><p>It&#039;s easy to over-think a thing, I guess!</p><p>[ATTACH=full]340250[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]340251[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
