Mary Brown House sampler Pennsylvania dated 1812 Mary was a 10 year old schoolgirl when she worked this impressive house sampler. She included a large brick center-hall house flanked with paired birds, trees, and various flowering motifs and a verse of encouragement for progressive young ladies that still rings true today. Virtue and wit with science join-d/ Refine the manners form the mind/ And when with industry they meet/ The female character’s complete. Silk on linen; 19 ¾” x 20” framed.
