"Coverlet" is a woven textile created in 1838 by American artist Isaac Brubaker (1806-1887). This piece, featuring a repeating pattern of white stars on a red and blue grid, exemplifies the artistic traditions of early American textile production. The intricate design and vibrant colors showcase Brubaker's skill and contribute to the overall aesthetic appeal of this iconic coverlet, currently housed at The Art Institute of Chicago.
