It may have exagerated the contrast between dark and light.

But maybe several quilts were made for that fair with the same pattern, different fabric. And maybe it's an illusion but enlarging the black and white image, the black seems to have a texture, kind of a stripe. <br /><br />Have you asked the curator if a color image is available? Maybe you would have more luck than I did in Old Richmondtown SI;-)Suzanne Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08387297696390711279noreply@blogger.com
