Description
Baskets were a very important part of life in the 18th century. They were needed to transport various items as well as for storing things. These baskets for the most part were hand-made by the women of the time and the craft was passed along to the children at an early age. Various materials and fibers were cut and woven into long strands to make the baskets, and as you can see in this painting, it was sometimes set-up as a joint effort for the women of the town working together to create baskets of various sizes and shapes.
