SCOTTISH ATTRIBUTED PICTORIAL NEEDLEWORK SAMPLER, wool on linen, six alphabet, numeral, and initials segmented by horizontal bands of decorative stitching, lower half depicting a multi-colored house with tufted grassy lawn or bushes, flanked by trees with birds and dogs in addition to a floral vine above and various initials to lower corners, bottom edge signed "AGNES BREBNER AGED 11 / 8t / AUGUS [sic] / 1834", all encompassed by a vine border. Housed under glass in a modern frame. Dated 1834, but possibly later. 15 1/2" x 17" sight, 18 1/4" x 19 3/4" OA.
Catalogue Note: The identity of the maker is undetermined, but there were a number of girls named Agnes Brebner living primarily in Scotland during the 19th century. The stitched "1834" date may have been later added, or possibly a replacement of the original date that was previously removed.
Very good visual condition with linen having light toning, a few stains to linen, a few small holes mostly along edges, and some visible fraying along side edges, some thread with light fugitive color and some scattered losses mostly being small in size, frame with minor wear. Not examined out of frame.
