This is one of the maidens depicted in Frida Hansen’s monumental@tapestry from 1903, Sørover (Southward). Many people at my lecture last weekend commented on the beauty of the transparent effect of the bonnets -exceptional weaving skills! But what would the bonnets have been made of “in real life”? Although the image is based on Norse mythology; maybe they are just mythological head coverings… But would they correspond to any actual fashions from around 1903? #fridahansen #norskkunst #norwegianart #billedvev #vev #artnouveaufashion #tapestry #tapestryweaving
I wasn't able to share this Instagram Live discussion directly. Go to @peterpaprugs for a post-lecture Q & A session about this monumental Frida Hansen tapestry. #fridahansen #tapestryweaving #norwegianart #norskkunst #billedvev #vev #tapestry #kunstvev
This live video (my first ever!) was plagued with technical glitches - intermittent wi-go. I still think you can catch my enthusiasm and that of my super tapestry weaver friend Kristin Kelley-Munoz as we talk about Frida Hansen’s monumental tapestry, Sørover (Southward) at Peter Pap Oriental Rug Gallery in Dublin, New Hampshire. #tapestry #fridahansen #billedvev #norwegianart
Chairs will be in place for my lecture at 4. There will be an Instagram live session during the Q and A time, on Peter Pap’s feed, @peterpaprugs. Join us! Around 4:30.
Short Instagram live at 2 pm eastern time in front of Frida Hansen’s Sørover tapestry. Questions you’d like to ask? #fridahansen #billedvev #tapestryweaving #peterpaprugs #peterpap
Frida Hansen’s Sørover (Southward) shines in the midst of all of the oriental rug eye candy at Peter Pap’s fall show in Dublin, New Hampshire. Lecture tomorrow, and a sneak peek at the tapestry on Instagram Live at 2 pm eastern. Kristin Kelly-Munoz will join me with her tapestry weaver first impressions! #peterpap #peterpaprugs #fridahansen #tapestryweaving #norwegianart #norskkunst
