English: eyedazzler, woven in handspun wool, in natural ivory and dark brown, and numerous aniline colors, with a pair of crosses enclosed by an overall concentric diamond pattern.
72 in. by 53 in. Exhibited Saint Louis Art Museum: “Navajo Weavings from the Andy Williams Collection,” October 26, 1997 – January 4, 1998 Literature Ann Lane Hedlund, Navajo Weavings from the Andy Williams Collection, 1997, p. 71, no. 39 Catalogue Note Ms. Hedlund writes on p. 20: "The Navjo's internment at Bosque Redondo introduced weavers to new materials, such as colorful Germantown yarns, and to new design ideas like the elaborate serrate diamonds from Mexican serapes. After their return from Bosque Redondo, commercial yarns along with other rations were issued to Navajo weavers by the US government. Navajos adapted these into eye-dazzling designs of their own, exchanging their earlier horizontal bands for elaborate diamonds with a vertical orientation." |
