on Velvet Information: The
"Four Season's" is an adaptation of an museum
theorem. The original theorem can be found in the
Dewitt Wallace Gallery in Colonial Williamsburg. The
name "Four Season's" is based on the fact that
there are flowers from each season of the year in the painting.
As
with any theorem it is a stencil art form painted in oil
on a cotton velveteen fabric.
Theorems
are true American Folk Art and were often created by young
ladies as part of their finishing school studys. Most of
the old theorems were not signed or dated but could be traced
by the pattern created by a New England school.
