Handwoven Coverlet c. 1937

This is a design for a handwoven coverlet created by Cornelius Christoffels in 1937. The geometric pattern features a grid-like arrangement of red, blue, and grey squares and rectangles, creating a visually complex and interesting composition. The original coverlet would have measured 90" long and 72" wide, and the artist's signature is visible in the bottom right corner. This design exemplifies Christoffels' talent for creating intricate and visually engaging textile patterns. The design's simple yet effective color scheme and the detail of the woven pattern demonstrate the artist's keen eye for design and his mastery of the handwoven textile medium.
