O Sweet Humility ~ Eliza Townsend's Work 1835 from Cross Stitch Antiques ~ Nashville 2023

    Nashville 2023 Market release.

    Kathleen tells us "With nothing but a name and date, no personal information could be discovered about the stitcher of this vibrant sampler but it is probable she was an English girl. This can be surmised due to her name, the mirrored images of the motifs flanking the moralistic verse, the large red building, and the lower pastoraL scene of a bucolic country hillside which had come into vogue in the early 1800s based on the period of Romanticism (1798-1837). An ideal landscape is depicted where peace reigns among man and God’s creatures and all is in harmony with God’s plan. The large red edifice rises from the lawn and takes center stage, perhaps a church as depicted by the multiple crosses on the dual steeples."

    Stitches used include cross stitch over two, satin stich, cross stitch over one for verse, name, and birds.
