* Genealogical sampler by Jane Smith, 1820, stitched in silks on cream muslin, with a family tree and a devotional 4-line verse in black worked in cross-stitch, 'Jane Smith worked this 1820' below, with a wide polychrome border of large flower sprigs, floral urns, a dog, birds, and a few other decorative motifs, within an outer scalloped floral border, worked mainly in satin stitch, long and short stitch, stem stitch, and chain stitch, support lightly toned and a little cockled, 42 x 37.5 cm (16.5 x 14.75 ins), framed and glazed (47 x 43 cm) QTY: (1)NOTE:A George IV needlework sampler, worked with the dates of birth of Joshua and Mary Smith (born 1778 and 1775 respectively) and their six children; it records the birth date of Jane as 25th July 1806, the maker having therefore been around the age of 14 when she stitched this needlework. More unusually, and rather poignantly, Jane records the tragic premature death of her mother, not long before her own eighth birthday: 'Mary Smith died July 8th 1814'. Also unusual is the medium - gauzy muslin with complex freestyle embroidery (apart from the text), rather than the more commonly-found - and easier to work - cross-stitch on linen. An interesting sampler in good condition.
