Item Details

Description

Item: American Sampler

Maker: Sarah Stevens

Date: 1844

Size: 22 x 19 inches

Description: Depicts Adam & Eve in the Garden of Eden

In original frame and glass

In the 1700s, samplers depicting alphabets and numerals were worked by young women to learn the basic needlework skills needed to operate the family household. By the late 1700s and early 1800s, schools or academies for well-to-do young women flourished, and more elaborate pieces with decorative motifs such as verses, flowers, houses, religious, pastoral, and/or mourning scenes were being stitched. The parents of these young women proudly displayed their embroideries as showpieces of their work, talent, and status.
