Mantle
Not on view
Nuts, berries, and leaves on a russet field are complemented by the drape of fringe, its fall also a reference to the season. All that one needs to hibernate for the winter is present on this shawl and even three-dimensionally. Not only is there sculptural relief inherent in the luxuriant velvet, but the front closures also resemble berries. A mantle for a human being is remarkably like fall's organic mantle.
