"Embroidery Painting Needle Painting On Art Nouveau Silk Signed"
Large embroidery from the early 1900s in needlepoint painting after the work "Loves Me, He Loves Me Not" by the English artist Mary Golay. (1869-1944).This English artist is, today, practically unknown to the point that the highest price recently achieved by these works concerns precisely the painting "Loves Me, He Loves Me Not", represented here in embroidery, which was sold at auction in Chicago by Hidman, in 2015, for the modest value of $3,500.
Probably this artist was more famous during her lifetime, the creation of this magnificent embroidery would attest to this, since it is signed lower right. from an Italian name, Maria Bazzoni, the embroiderer who made it.
