Fashion And Fabrications: Furnishing Textiles In The Early 19th Century

Furnishing textiles were among the most costly and elaborate statements of style in early America. Explore fashionable fabrics of the early 19th-century with Linda Eaton, director of collections and curator of textiles at Winterthur Museum & Country Estate, and discover which are familiar (and which are not) to us today. Preconceptions paint a different picture than evidence reveals. The talk will be followed by Q & A and a reception in the Wine Cellar. Download the brochure.
