Silk Curtain Panel

Not Attributed

Made in 1900, this delicate gossamer silk curtain panel is from Scotland. Art Nouveau in style, it depicts a “water’s edge”. Embroidered rows of irises create a repeated pattern, growing in size as they descend vertically down the textile. The bottom is adorned with geometric forms alluding to symbols of water or a river bank.
