Spectacular,
very large, rare Dutch antique sampler. Framed and behind glass.
It's
has such wonderful colors and a very rare scene of two children
feeding swans by the water. It also has a lovely floral border decor.
The
sampler was finished in 1866 by Jenneken Heilersig who was at the
time 44 years of age. She was born on the 4th of november
1839 and died the 20th of May 1884. Never married and no
children. According to the history that I found on her and her
family.
The
initials to the left of her name on the bottom our of her father's:
G.H.H., Gerrit Hendrik Heilersig and to the right side H.D.V the
initails of her mother: Hendrika Visscher.
This
family lived in the village of Markelo in the Netherlands, though
their family name can be traced back to the “Heilerzich in
Salzuflen (1641) they are decendants of a Prussian family.
I
will provide the buyer with the internet links of all the information
that I was able to find on Jenneken Heilersig.
The
sampler is in the condtion as shown in all the photo's. The frame
too. Please view photo's for they are an important part of the
description. I do not know if the frame and glass is as old as the
sampler though they are very old. Close up's of the imperfections and wear to it. I have more photo's of each side of the frame, but with only 12 photo's as a maximum to add here I chose to show more of the sampler itself. Frame is old and in condition as shown. Glass looks very old, imperfections and waves in it.
