Jan Haag
Double strand Persian wool on 12 mesh canvas. Continental stitch in all four directions.
Approximately 1,512 stitches
Dimensions: 2 x 3 3/4 x 11/16 in.
ADDITIONAL INFO:
The colors recall a Japanese lustreware tea set remembered from Jan Haag's childhood. The animal-like figures were added by Haag years after the work was first created, another example of her putting aside a "completed" work and returning to it years later to charge it with new motifs and ideas.
