EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Label for Bohemian thread, beautifully rendered in vibrant colors through the technique of colour lithography. Created by an anonymous French School artist during the 19th century, this label is now part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into the world of fashion and textiles from that era. The label features an enchanting image depicting a woman dressed in traditional Bohemian attire. Her clothing exudes elegance and grace, reflecting the rich cultural heritage associated with Bohemia. This exquisite piece was sold by GJDB, adding to its historical significance. As we delve deeper into this artwork, it becomes evident that it not only represents fashion but also holds cultural connotations. The term "Bohemian" refers to the Roma people or gypsies who were known for their nomadic lifestyle and distinctive style. By incorporating elements such as fila la bohemienne (Bohemian thread) and references to gypsy culture, this label pays homage to these fascinating communities. Preserved within the Valerie Jackson Harris Collection at Look and Learn, this print serves as a testament to the enduring allure of traditional clothing and craftsmanship. It invites us to appreciate both the artistry behind creating labels for threads as well as the stories they tell about different cultures throughout history.
