Catalogue Mrs. Phoebe A. Hearst Loan collection
A 1917 exhibition catalogue from the San Francisco Art Association, listing the Mrs. Phoebe A. Hearst loan collection of textiles and tapestries for a San Francisco public audience. The plates show carpets and a Renaissance tapestry rendered in halftone photographs. A designer could draw on their dense geometric borders, medallion layouts and the astrological roundel of the September tapestry for pattern and framing ideas.
