Description
A 1920s ivory panne velvet dress with silver and gold stencil designs. The sleeves are long rectangular side flutter soufflepanels with stenciled boarders and beaded hem. Interior is lined with silk. Bust approximately 26 x Length approximately 67 inches.
Together with her husband Peter, Maria Monaci Gallenga illuminated the 1920s and 30s with the design strategies flowing from her Florentine studio. Recognized for innovation in print technique, Gallenga's wooden matrices and pigmented metallic powders mimicked a hand-painted feel. The stenciled textiles, cloaks, and capes of the Gallenga body of work often invoke Medieval and Renaissance art history, and currently grace the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
PROVENANCE From The Collection of Doris Raymond
