EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning tablecloth or bedcover, titled "Ragged Poppy," was created by the British artist John Scarrat Rigby in London during the year 1902. The artwork is a prime example of the block printing technique, which was popular during the 20th century. The tablecloth or bedcover is made of cotton in a plain weave and features a captivating floral motif, with poppies being the central theme. The poppies appear to be "ragged," giving the piece a unique and textured appearance. The vibrant red color of the poppies contrasts beautifully with the white background, creating a striking visual effect. The tablecloth or bedcover showcases the artist's exceptional design skills, with each poppy meticulously printed using woodblock techniques. The "Ragged Poppy" tablecloth or bedcover is a testament to the rich heritage of textile arts in Britain during the early 20th century. It is a beautiful object that would have graced the tables or beds of the well-to-do during this era. The piece is now a cherished addition to the textile collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is displayed for all to appreciate the intricacy and artistry of the block printing process.
