Quilts:

Harbingers of Modern Art The European quilting tradition was transported to America at the time of the earliest colonial settlements, evolving from English and Welsh designs. Surviving examples include whole cloth top quilts featuring elaborate embroidery. By the first half of the nineteenth century, this aesthetic expanded into more intricate block styles, adding variation and complexity. As the century progressed and cotton and wool fabrics became more affordable, particularly with the advent of aniline dyes, quilting became more common among all classes. Another impetus that lead to the increase in quilt making in early America was the shift in family dynamics due to industrialization, where men left their homesteads to work in towns and women’s labor centered on domestic duties, chief among them needlework and quilt making. Despite the newfound popularization of this artform, it was the exquisite craftsmanship and distinct aesthetic of Amish women in Lancaster, Pennsylvania who wholly revolutionized the genre, ushering in a Golden Age of quilting between the 1870s and 1940s. Originally of Swiss-German origin, the Pennsylvania Dutch, as they came to be known, were religiously devout and valued their rural existence, removed from the ills of modern society. This humility informed many of their design and color choices, resulting in some of the most stunning and visually modern textiles in American quilt making, rivaled only by the African American quilts for their influence and appeal. During that period, the preeminent aesthetic had been developed by the “English” quilters. While the Amish drew some influence from that precedent, they also chose to deliberately depart from the latest trends in quilting, staying within the framework of their tried-and-true designs. For instance, the Amish typically did not use printed fabrics in their designs and prized pieced quilts over appliqué. The quilts tend to be square and are finished with “[a] wide outer border and a contrasting inner border [which] were used to define the major design field” Holstein (1996, 102). Most consequential was their preference for “traditional” designs over the latest trendy quilt block, employing a repertoire of tried and true designs sewn across generations. As early adopters of the treadle sewing machine, Lancaster Amish quilts were made of wool and designed to last. Jonathan Lot 29: An Amish Sunshine and Shadow quilt 1920-1930, Ohio

Holstein in his essay accompanying the exhibition A Quiet Spirit: Amish Quilts from the Collection of Cindy Tietze and Stuart Hodosh noted: “The wools were, aesthetically, a particularly fortuitous development in Amish quilt making. These unpatterned materials in the deep, saturated colors the Amish preferred— Colors with the same intensities that appear in nature unpatterned—give Lancaster Amish quilts their distinctive inner glow; they absorb and reflect light very differently from other materials, their surfaces are more diffuse, and, unlike cotton quilts, they can absorb a great deal of light without washing out visually; under heavy lighting, in fact, their colors become richer and deeper.” Holstein (1996, 86) Add to that a predilection for deeply saturated wools and cottons on dark grounds, and the Amish quilting aesthetic naturally takes on a graphic and modern quality, explaining their popularity with contemporary collectors. These timeless works are just as at home next to a Jasper Johns painting as on an Amish bed. In fact, beginning in the 1970s, the quilts were exhibited alongside works from contemporary artists like aforementioned Johns, Josef Albers, Sol LeWitt, Frank Stella, Andy Warhol, and other mid-century artists. Viewers at the time could trace the visual origin of important 20th century aesthetic movements in the colors and patterns of the Amish quilts, bringing them into the wider conversation of art. The comparatively inexpensive quilts became a walletfriendly option for art connoisseurs looking to add a large punch of graphic color to their walls. In classic Amish quilt making, there were six influential patterns that were popularized in the second quarter of the 19th century: Center Square, Bars, Center Diamond, SawTooth, Irish Chain, and Sunshine and Shadow. Variations of these six designs, as interpreted in Amish communities across the country, are exemplified in this auction. Of those six patterns, collectors tend to gravitate toward the “Big Three”: Sunshine and Shadows, Bars, and Center in the Square. Sunshine and Shadows also known as Trip Around the World, the quiltmaker can start the design from the center and work outward, rendering the design in complementary colors radiating from the center. Bars, which can be likened Doyle Lane (1925-2002 Los Angeles, CA) Clay Painting, 1969

to pop art in its color choices and linear aesthetics, has its roots in the columnar designs of “English” quilts from the first half of the 19th century. Center in the Square, among the most simple and graphic of the early Amish quilts, can be embellished with subtle but complicated embroidery, the perfect vehicle for highlighting the skills of the embroiderer. Few other patterns allow embroidery to become the focus quite the way this pattern can. As satellite Amish communities were later established in the Midwest, this style of quilt making spread and evolved beyond the borders of Pennsylvania. From the early Center in Square patterns to the comparatively modern Double Wedding Ring block, each Amish community embraced regionally specific quilt designs. Midwestern Amish quilts differed from their Lancaster cousins in the materials and color schemes they chose. “Common characteristics among Midwestern quilts included the following: the use of unpatterned wool and cotton in early quilts, but cotton almost exclusively starting in the twentieth century; the use of a very broad palette; a rectangular shape; the commonly

used inner border format…and an innovative refiguring of pieced block designs” Holstein (1996, 97). Ohio Amish quilts exhibit a preference for black backgrounds as one of their most important contributions to the quilt making canon. Black can enhance and emphasize the preferred jewel tones of the patchwork the way typical white grounds cannot, resulting in some of the most interesting and visibly pleasing quilts in the tradition. The Amish quilts in this collection offer a wide lens on the evolution of the form and demonstrate the thoughtful connoisseurship of the Hodoshes in their careful acquisitions over a period of more than twenty years. They accumulated an unparalleled breadth of examples from the Classic period in Amish quilt making, varied in materials, techniques and color schemes. Simultaneously, they amassed a collection of Modern art, tramp art, Mexican silver, and American Indian art all of which speaks to their larger collecting ethos, one anchored in a clean, Modern aesthetic (even when the works of art predate the 20th century style). Above all, their collections honored the quality and beauty of the craftsman’s indelible influence on the history of humanity and our innate need to create.

(Holstein, “The Aesthetics of Amish Quilts,” 92). As in the present example, the crazy quilt could be characterized as a vehicle for displaying the quilter’s embroidery skills. Each strip is joined together by a dizzying array of embroidery stitches that makes the square come to life.

This design has a Central Square design field or a diamond on point within a square, with wide outer borders, and usually square corner blocks. The framed center design was made in both England and the U.S., here usually has a high style quilt, using fine chintzes and calicoes and often with broderie perse or other embellishments.” (Holstein, “The Aesthetics of Amish Quilts,” 88)

Kraybill et al., A Quiet Spirit: Amish Quilts from the Collection of Cindy Tietze & Stuart Hodosh, UCLA Fowler Museum of Cultural History, 1996, pg. 81 “Rayon had been introduced to the American public in the 1920s and Lancaster Amish began to use it in the quilts in small amounts before that decade ended. (Strangely, other quilt makers were less keen on it, perhaps because it was first marketed as a silk substitute, it's not as easy to cut and control in sewing as cotton or wool, and does not clean as easily as cotton. In this case the ‘English’ were more conservative than the Amish. Perhaps because the Amish were using it as a wool substitute in a ‘best quilt,’ they did not anticipate subjecting it to heavy use.) Rayon has significantly different surface and reflective qualities from wool, it is visually livelier and where it was used in an Amish quilt in combination with the latter material, it often adds vivid highlights. Sometimes, as in the Diamond Quilt...it is experienced as a glossier or silkier surface. Few other American quilt makers made quilts entirely of rayon; where they did, it was usually as a substitute for silk in the parlor or bed throw. (Holstein, “The Aesthetics of Amish Quilts,” 86)

Kraybill et al., A Quiet Spirit: Amish Quilts from the Collection of Cindy Tietze & Stuart Hodosh, UCLA Fowler Museum of Cultural History, 1996, pg. 137, exhibited One of the “Big Three” of Amish quilt design, Diamond in a Square with it’s shockingly modern color scheme and arrangement, could be at home in a museum of Modern art as easily as on the bed of an Amish family. As Jonathan Holstein“The Amish chose to use [the patchwork] method in a unique matter, building waves of color expanding from a single central square in alternating files of light and dark or hot and cool colors, the whole contained a strong frame, like a fusion chamber. These basic designs were rendered and overall format that was varied by using elements from a standard design kit that have these parts and particulars: The quilts were almost invariably more square than rectangular; there was always a central square field framed by wide borders, and often a thinner inner border in a contrasting color. The outer borders could be a continuous end of one color, or large square corner blocks in a contrasting color were added. A further optional refinement, when an inner border was used, was the placement of smaller blocks at its corners. All of the features noted here can be seen in the Diamond Quilt. (Holstein, “The Aesthetics of Amish Quilts,” 90)

The star becomes the quilting itself, with no better stage to shine than the large color fields inherent in the Diamond in the Square pattern. “The use of large, unpatterned pieces created color fields; striking design variations could be wrought through contrasting color juxtapositions. This remarkable design device allowed them to create finished quilts of the highest individuality within ‘acceptable’ standard formats, thus satisfying both the community’s desire for conformity and individual creative desires.” (Holstein, “The Aesthetics of Amish Quilts,” 91)

It appeared first in borders, then (as were other pieced border elements from early quilts) was later used in larger scale as a design element on a central field. It exists in a non-Amish quilt both in a ‘bars’ or columnar form, vertical bars with sawtooth edges standing in a contrasting color on a single color field, and in the large central diamond form scene in Lancaster Amish quilts.” (Holstein, “The Aesthetics of Amish Quilts,” 88)

This was a traditional quilt which could be quickly produced.

Kraybill et al., A Quiet Spirit: Amish Quilts from the Collection of Cindy Tietze & Stuart Hodosh, UCLA Fowler Museum of Cultural History, 1996, pg. 198, 199 One of the Ohio Amish’s most important artistic contribution to quilting was their use of black as a background color. Borrowing from the parlor quilts of the Victorian era, the black ground is a hallmark of this later era in quiltmaking and is employed with stunning affect by the Ohio Amish. “Another characteristic and effective device was the use of a limited palette. The simplest manifestation of this was the two-color quilt, typically a block pattern in one color set against a background of another. In the Bow Tie quilt...the maker had the brio to turn one block and change the mid-strip in the block above it, touches that turn a pleasant, ordered surface into an enigmatic and arresting statement. Who knows why she did it? Some will no doubt invoke the quiltmakers’ occasional custom of intentionally building an imperfection into an otherwise flawless quilt so as not to rival God’s perfection.” (Holstein, “The Aesthetics of Amish Quilts,” 100-101)

The Amish adapted the pattern and interpreted it in their prefered color palette. “Additionally, the wide range of colors used by groups of different conservatism in the Big Valley mirrors developments in the Midwest. The most conservative group favored a ‘limited palette of traditional “natural” colors: browns, blues, darker purples, black, darker greens, yellow, ochre, tan and some darker reds’ while other groups favored ‘brighter, “synthetic” colors’...[as in] the Star of Bethlehem quilt.” (Holstein, “The Aesthetics of Amish Quilts,” 97)

The first with a note of Provenance affixed verso. “In color choices Indiana quilt makers followed the general Ohio pattern, a limited range of old-fashioned colors in early quilts, and a brighter pallet as time went on and choices increased., though made of cotton, uses 'traditional' tonalities associated with early wool quilts, and the quilt of the same pattern from Indiana...The two also make a quick study of the visual variety different quilt makers achieved using the same basic designs. Just as black became a favored background color in Ohio, blue was much liked in Indiana, especially in indigo tonalities, a link with the past.” (Holstein, “The Aesthetics of Amish Quilts,” 102)

Conditions of Sale AUCTION HOUSE AS AGENT Except as otherwise stated, John Moran Auctioneers Moran's) acts as agent for the seller. The contract for the sale of the property is therefore made between the seller and the buyer. BEFORE THE AUCTION (a) Public Preview: All property is available for inspection by public preview during the day of auction. In many cases, particular lots can be examined in advance by private appointment. Prospective buyers are strongly encouraged to personally examine any property in which they are interested. (b) Buyer's Responsibility: Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction. (c) Property Sold 'As Is': Neither Moran's nor the seller provides any guarantee in relation to the nature of the property, or to any errors or omissions in the catalogue or supplemental material apart from the Limited Warranty stated below. Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran's catalogue or can be made available upon request. The absence of a condition report does not imply than an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. AT THE AUCTION (a) Admission: The auction is open to the public, though Moran's reserves the right to refuse admission or participation to anyone at any time. The auctioneer may be recorded (visually, aurally or otherwise) and all participants consent to such recording. (b) Buyer Registration: Prospective buyers must register with Moran's before bidding. Moran's may require identification and financial references in advance of buyer eligibility. Registered bidders accept personal liability to pay the purchase price, including the buyer's premium plus all applicable charges, unless Moran's agrees in advance that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Moran's. In such case, Moran's will look to the third party for payment. (c) Bidding Guidelines: Bidding, whether in person, by agent, absentee bid, telephone, or internet, constitutes a bidder's acceptance of these conditions. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the buyer. The auctioneer retains the absolute right to reject any bid, to withdraw, pass or divide any lots, to combine multiple lots, to advance the bidding at his or her absolute discretion and (in the case of error or dispute, whether during or after the sale) to determine the successful bidder, to continue the bidding, cancel the sale or to re-offer and sell the lot in question. Under no circumstances are the consignors' or agents acting on their behalf, permitted to bid on their consignment. In the event of any dispute after the auction Moran's sale record shall be conclusive. (d) Absentee, Telephone and Internet Bidding: Moran's offers absentee, telephone and internet bidding as a convenience to clients and does not accept liability for errors or failures to execute such bids. Absentee and telephone bids must be recognized by Moran's prior to auction day. When identical absentee bids are submitted that become the highest bids at the auction, the bid first received by Moran's shall be accepted as the winning bid. Telephone bidders are encouraged to leave minimum bids in case of technical failure. (e) Reserves: Unless indicated otherwise, lots may be offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which the lot will not be sold. The reserve for any lot shall not exceed its published estimate. Moran's shall act to protect the reserve by bidding through the auctioneer, who may open bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing a bid on the seller's behalf. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the seller up to the reserve amount, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Lots without reserves are typically opened for bidding at 50% of their low estimate. In the absence of a bid at that level, the auctioneer may proceed backwards at his discretion or deem the lot unsold if a bid is not recognized. AFTER THE AUCTION (a) Payment and Title Transfer: The buyer agrees to pay the sum of the hammer price plus Buyer's Premium, plus any applicable sales tax. Buyer's Premium is calculated as follows: 25% on the first $500,000 of the hammer price, plus 18% on any amount between $500,001 - $1,000,000, and 15% on any amount above $1,000,000 when paying by cash, check or wire transfer. Successful bidders using Live Auctioneers platform will be charged a Buyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Premium of: 30% on the first $500,000 of the hammer price, plus 23% on any amount between $500,001 - $1,000,000, and 20% on any amount above $1,000,000 when paying by cash, check or wire transfer. Credit card payments will be subject to an additional 3.5% acceptance fee. This fee is not more than the cost of accepting these cards. Buyers outside the United States must submit payment via wire transfer. Credit cards are not an accepted form of payment for buyers outside the United States. Buyers are strongly encouraged to provide full payment at the auction. Payment must be received by Moran's within five business days immediately following the auction. The buyer shall not acquire title or take possession of the lot until all amounts (including the hammer price, premium and applicable taxes) due to Moran's have been paid in full. (b) Collection: Buyers are strongly encouraged to collect purchased items from the sale site at the time of the auction. Packing material and labor are provided free of charge at the sale site during the auction. Packing and handling of purchased lot is undertaken by Moran's solely as a convenience to customers. Moran's is not liable for damage to property, regardless of cause, in connection with this courtesy service (c) Storage: Following the auction, uncollected lots shall be relocated to and stored in Moran's warehouse. Moran's shall retain possession of all purchases until full payment has been received from the buyer. Lots remaining uncollected after the fifth business day following the sale, regardless of payment status, are subject to a per-lot daily storage charge of $10.00. In addition to other remedies available by law, Moran's reserves the right to impose upon delinquent buyers a separate 1% monthly charge (of the

166

purchase price, or the maximum permitted by law) commencing on the sixth business day after the sale date. (d) Shipping: Buyers are responsible for arranging their own shipping estimates and deliveries. Moran's in our discretion and as a courtesy to buyers, can arrange to have purchased lots packed, insured and forwarded by a third-party shipper at the request, expense and risk of the buyer. Moran's assumes no responsibility for acts or omissions in such packing or shipping by other packers or carriers, even if recommended by Moran's. Nor does Moran's assume any responsibility for any damage to picture frames or to the glass therein. In circumstances where Moran's arranges for such third-party services, Moran's may apply an administration charge of 15% of that service fee. (e) All Sales Final: Notwithstanding other terms mentioned herein, refunds shall be given at Moran's sole discretion. Refunds requested on the grounds of authenticity must be made within 10 days of the auction and accompanied by a supporting written statement from a recognized authority (defined as a person who has authored, edited, or substantially contributed to a monograph on the artist, a person who has curated, organized or substantially contributed to a solo exhibition on the artist, a person who has represented the artist's estate or someone who represented or worked closely with the artist while they were alive and, in any of the above instances physically handled works of the period, medium and subject matter in question during the course of their duties) stating that the object sold is incorrect or not the work of the artist. Dealers, appraisers and representatives of other auction firms do not qualify as authenticators of individual artists unless they have had such specific involvement with that artist's work, as specified above, in addition to their daily duties. Refunded lots must be returned to Moran's in the same condition as when sold. Moran's does not grant extensions to refund considerations based upon authenticity due to shipping delays. There are no exceptions to this refund policy. LIABILITY AND LIMITED WARRANTY (a) Liability: The buyer expressly agrees that (i) neither Moran's nor the seller shall be liable, in whole or in part, for any special, indirect or consequential damages, including, without limitation, loss of profits and (ii) the buyer's damages, if any, are limited exclusively to the original purchase price paid for the lot. (b) Limited Warranty: All property is sold as is. Neither Moran's nor the consignor or our associates make any representation, express or implied warranty (including merchantability and fitness) or guarantee in condition, age, size, provenance, medium, signature, inscription, exhibition history, importance, rarity, country of origin, genuineness, historical relevance, monetary or other value, framing or lack thereof, mounting, conservation, coloring, palette, inscription, edition, style, label or other descriptor. No statement in the catalogue, brochures, website, bill of sale or invoice, any supplementary material, or statements by any Moran's employee shall be deemed such a warranty or representation or an assumption of liability. (c) Descriptions: No warranty, whether express or implied, is made with respect to any description contained in this auction or any second opinion. Any description of the items or second opinion is for the courtesy of identifying the items for those Bidders who do not have the opportunity to view the lots in person, and no description of items has been made part of the basis of the transaction or has created any express warranty that the goods would conform to any description made by the Auctioneer. Color variations can be expected in any electronic or printed imaging and are not grounds for the return of any lot. (d) Estimates: All estimates provided are carefully considered opinions of Moran's specialists, and are merely suggested guidelines for interested buyers. Buyers must be aware that all property sold is subject to fluctuating values depending on the subjective interests of collectors and a wide variety of other uncontrollable factors. The lots auctioned may sell at prices above, within, or below estimate. (e) Regulated Species: Lots with a "â&#x2014;&#x160;" symbol in the printed or digital catalog, or noted within the condition report of a lot, may contain regulated plant or animal materials and could be subject to certain import or export restrictions. It is the buyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsibility to investigate any such restrictions and obtain any required import or export permits / licenses. The inability to obtain any such document(s) is not grounds for requesting a refund nor does it negate the buyer from making full payment for their purchase. (f) Notices, Demands and Refunds: Any demands for refunds, problems with the lot(s) sold or notices of any kind concerning the auction shall be in writing and addressed to John Moran Auctioneers, Inc, 145 East Walnut Avenue, Monrovia, CA 91016. ADDITIONAL MATTERS (a) Copyright: The copyright on all images, illustrations and written material produced by or for Moran's for this auction is and shall remain at all times the property of Moran's. Moran's and the seller make no representation or warranty that the buyer will acquire any copyright or reproduction rights to a purchased lot. (b) Buyer's Breach of Conditions: If a buyer fails to comply with any of these conditions, Moran's may, in addition to asserting all remedies available by law, including the right to hold that buyer liable for the purchase price, (i) cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages any payment made by the buyer, (ii) resell the property without reserve at public auction or privately upon notice to the buyer, or (iii) take such other action as we deem necessary or appropriate. If Moran's resells the property, the original defaulting buyer shall be liable for the payment of any deficiency between the original sale price and any subsequent mitigation sale, including warehousing, the expenses of both sales, reasonable attorney's fees, commissions, incidental damages and all other charges due hereunder. In the event that such buyer pays a portion of the purchase price for any property, Moran's shall apply the payment received to such property that Moran's in our sole discretion, deems appropriate. Moran's shall have the benefit of all rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code adopted in the State of California. (c) Severability: Should any of these conditions be deemed unenforceable, invalid or illegal in any court having jurisdiction, that part shall be discounted and shall have no effect on the enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein, which shall remain valid to the fullest extent permitted by law. (d) Jurisdiction: The rights and obligations of the parties with respect to these conditions and the conduct of the auction shall be governed and interpreted by the laws of the State of California. By bidding, whether in person or by agent, by absentee bid, telephone, internet or other means, the buyer shall be deemed to have consented to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the state of California or, if applicable, the federal courts sitting in this state. Further, the buyer agrees that the venue for any action arising out of the failure to abide by these conditions, or any conduct related to or arising out of the auction, shall be the Los Angeles Superior Court, North East Branch located at 600 Olive Street, Burbank, California.
