EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century panel, titled "Panel, Lyon, c. 1732," is an enchanting example of European textile art from the early modern period. The creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, but it is believed to have originated from Lyon, France, a city renowned for its rich textile heritage. The panel is a stunning work of art, featuring a vibrant floral motif woven in silk and silvered metal strip. The intricate design is executed in a 71 satin weave, with supplementary brocading wefts and plain interlacings of secondary binding warps. The ground wefts display a self-patterning effect, adding to the overall visual appeal. The color palette is rich and diverse, with hues of red, green, blue, and gold, evoking the opulence and grandeur of the eighteenth century. The metallic thread adds a shimmering effect, enhancing the beauty of the floral motifs. This panel is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic talent of the time. It is a rare survival from the era, providing a glimpse into the world of European textile design during the eighteenth century. The panel's intricate weaving technique, use of high-quality silk, and the application of silver thread demonstrate the skill and dedication of the unknown artisan. The panel is now part of the esteemed collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is admired and studied by scholars and visitors alike. It is a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of Europe and the importance of preserving and celebrating the beauty and craftsmanship of the past.
