Length 1902 - 1905

"Length" is a textile design by John Scott Bradstreet, a prominent American textile designer. Created between 1902 and 1905, the work features a repeating pattern of stylized lotus leaves and flowers, executed in shades of green, yellow, and white on a red background. The design, likely inspired by Japanese aesthetics, reflects the Arts and Crafts movement's interest in traditional crafts and decorative arts. It is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This textile is a testament to Bradstreet's mastery of pattern and color, showcasing the beauty and craftsmanship of American textile design in the early 20th century.
