Pillar print c. 1830

This anonymous "Pillar Print" (c. 1830) is a stunning example of 19th century textile design. The print features an intricate pattern of flowers and baskets of fruit, with a central motif of a stylized, classical pillar. The delicate colors and floral details are indicative of the Rococo Revival style, which was popular in the mid-19th century. The design would have likely been used for upholstery or drapery, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to any home. This textile serves as a reminder of the beauty and artistry that was woven into everyday life during this era.
