Caswell Carpet c. 1939

"Caswell Carpet" is a 1939 artwork by Charlotte Winter, depicting a quilt design with a variety of motifs including floral patterns, animals, and a central scene of two children. This artwork is a prime example of a needlepoint, a type of textile art that uses yarn and needle to create a pattern on a fabric base. Winter's work demonstrates a skill of intricate stitching and masterful colour selection, creating a vibrant and detailed piece that would have likely been a treasured heirloom.
