A magnificent antique Georgian sampler beautifully executed in 1816 by Janet Grigor Perih. An amazing historic sampler with a large swan on top and a sinister poem forewarning Britain of the disasters to come. A beautiful patina with some tears in linen as shown.

Antique Framed Sampler Worked by Ann Shirley 1812
Antique sampler worked by Ann Shirley, March 10 or 19? Her work shows the alphabet and numbers along with a bowl of fruit and trees and birds in flight above the fruit bowl. The border is a vine with flowers. It’s worked in browns with pale yellow, grey, white and black and there is some pink in the fruit bowl. Measures 9-1/2 inches by 12-3/4 inches long. Some loss of thread as evident in the pictures. Minor discoloring of linen commensurate with age. Overall condition is very good. I had this conservation framed after purchasing it from England.
