Sidewall, Garden Baskets
This is a sidewall. It was designed by Ilonka Karasz and made by Katzenbach and Warren, Inc.. It is dated 1950–52 and we acquired it in 1952. Its medium is screen-printed paper. It is a part of the Wallcoverings department.
One of a few Karasz wallpapers printed in colors this design features a summer bounty of fruit, vegetables, and herbs. The different elements are rendered without perspective so as not to belie the flat nature of the wall. A signature of her drawing style are the delicate textures created to denote the woven surfaces of the baskets and veining of the foliage.
