Exposition de Marquoirs anciens An Exhibition of Old Sampler
Aux Pays-Bas à Goes en Zeeland
More than 120 samplers from private collections dating from 1750 are now on display in the Maria Magdalenakerk in Goes, Netherlands until 17 August. The exhibition and concept of the exhibition is wonderful since each piece comes with a description and narrative from its particular owner, providing a unique insight into its history and background. Above you can see a rare Surinamese sampler from Paramaribo dated 1894 worked by C Nyhof. Another owner has provided samplers from 5 generations of stitchers. Opening times are: Monday to Friday 11.00-17.00 and Saturday from 12.00-16.00.
