A. W. N. PUGIN (1812-1852) OR E. W. PUGIN (1834-1875) NEEDLEWORK WOOL RUG, CIRCA 1850 wool, with later linen backing, with later cotton binding to each end, the panel a section of a larger carpet 215cm x149cm Provenance: St. Leonards - Mayfield Chapel, Mayfield, Sussex, England. Note: The remains of a medieval palace, formerly belonging to the Archbishops of Canterbury, were converted into Mayfield School of the Holy Child by Edward Welby Pugin between 1863 and 1866. One notable feature from this period is a needlework rug that originally spanned the entire length of the Chapel. Owing to the scale of the project, the rug was crafted in small, panelled sections, which were later stitched together to form the complete carpet. This hand-stitched work was produced by the sisters of Mayfield Chapel for Mother Cornelia Connelly, the founder of the Society of the Holy Child Jesus. As with other projects, E.W. Pugin is believed to have utilised decorative designs originally created by his father, which may have been employed in this instance.
