Description: | A lover of Burgh House embroidered this image of Burgh House, Hampstead and its gardens. This sort of embroidery is called blackwork, a monotone technique which can be used to imitate pen-and-ink drawings. When the craftsman cannot use colour gradations to create shapes, he or she must be creative in using the white background for outlines of forms. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Hampstead Museum | Rights holder: | Hampstead Museum | Subjects: | Leisure Art and Design | Temporal: | 1985 | Source: | Burgh House and Hampstead Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
