Jacket c. 1900 - 1910

This anonymous "Jacket" from the early 20th century is a striking example of traditional textile arts. Made of silk, it features a bright yellow ground with a repeating floral pattern in shades of pink, red, and black, showcasing the artistry of its unknown creator. The garment’s long sleeves, open front, and collarless neckline are typical of traditional clothing from the region. The use of silver thread for embellishments adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the design. The "Jacket" currently resides in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, where it serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of textile art and the craftsmanship of anonymous artists.
