Woolwork Picture of Menands, NY

Wool over perforated board
Circa: 1905
26 1/2" (h) x 39" (l) sight; 33 1/2" (h) x 46" (l) framed
This unique large scale woolwork resembles folk art paintings of the period. A large Victorian home is wrought along a brick wall with an iron gate. A mill, lake with over-sized swans, train tracks and a tunnel, as well as a farm and “The Cathedral of All Saints,” are also depicted.

Many of the buildings are finished with windows that have crushed colored glass.

Though I have seen many sailor's woolies of ships, I have never seen a woolwork town/landscape or one of this large scale.
