Darning sampler

A beautiful and almost perfect Dutch darning sampler made at the Werk-en Leerschool in Amsterdam.

 

The initials along the "star darning" are of the governesses of the school;

Anna Maria Sterling and Barbara ten Sande. The sampler was not completely finished;

the girl's initials are missing!

 

Finely worked with silk on cotton.

 

 

Size: 42 x 40cm.

Not framed

 

In a very good condition with a (water-) stain in the right lower part.

 

 



Price: Sold
