EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of decorative chains made from human hair, delicately arranged around an embroidered screen. The image, captured by A. Lutz in the 18th-19th century, portrays a stunning example of ornate decoration and interior design. Handcoloured copperplate engraving by D. Sluyter A. Lutz after an illustration by Cornelis Borsteegh, this artwork is taken from Anna Barbara van Meertens' renowned publication "Penelope, Or Maandwerk aan het Vrouwelijk Geslacht Toegewijd" (Penelope, Monthly Magazine dedicated to the Female Sex). Van Meerten herself was a pioneer in women's rights and education in Holland. The attention to detail and artistry displayed in this piece is truly remarkable. Each chain is meticulously crafted using human hair as its medium, adding a unique touch to the overall composition. This combination of needlework embroidery and hair craft creates a visually striking effect that speaks volumes about the skill and creativity of its creator. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this artwork also offers insights into historical practices and traditions surrounding interior decoration during that era. It serves as a testament to the importance placed on intricate designs within furniture and furnishings at that time. As we admire this extraordinary work of art today, it reminds us of the rich heritage of craftmanship passed down through generations while shedding light on the contributions made by influential figures like Anna Barbara van Meertens towards advancing women's roles in society.
