"Shaker Linen" is a piece of woven fabric created by George Constantine between 1935 and 1942. The artwork is a simple yet elegant composition of brown and white squares, evoking the classic gingham pattern. The handwoven nature of the linen adds texture and depth to the piece, highlighting Constantine's artistic approach to traditional textile techniques. The artwork's small size (25 x 22 cm) suggests an intimate and personal scale, allowing viewers to appreciate the delicate details and craftsmanship of the weave. Constantine's "Shaker Linen" is a testament to the enduring beauty of simple forms and the artistry found in everyday objects.
