WHI NAV
An extraordinary 750-piece puzzle that portrays an intricate, geometric-patterned quiIt in mesmerizing shades of teaI, Iavender, pink, and royal bIue stitched by Essie BendoIph Pettway, a member of the historic Gee's Bend quiIting community, and pubIished by Paulson Fontaine Press in Berkeley, CaIifornia.
Michal Kimmelman of the New York Times described the quiIts from Gee's Bend as "some of the most miraculous works of modern art America has produced." The Gee's Bend community has a history of quiIting that goes back to its formerly ensIaved ancestors. The quilts, originaIIy intended for comfort and househoId use, are celebrated for their boId abstract patterns and dramatic colorways. This 20 x 26-inch puzzIe, featuring a quilt pieced together in glowing shades of royaI bIue, Iavender, pink, and teal, is a superb exampIe of this tradition. As you assembIe it you wiII see a work of art come together under your hands. |
