The Memorial Art Gallery is fortunate to have in its collection both a portrait of Ann Gennett Lacey and an example of her needlework made when she was only ten years old (see row seven of her sampler). She was probably enrolled at a female academy in Riga, west of Rochester, where she was taught these skills.
Following the American Revolution, schools for young women began to flourish, and fine needlework was one of the subjects (as well as music, reading, writing, and arithmetic) included in the curriculum. The stitching of samplers was believed to be a sign of virtue, achievement and industry, stitched more to demonstrate education than to preserve a skill.

When the Russian Imperial Army conquered the Emirate of Bukhara, one of three Uzbek dynasties, in 1868, only Bukhara retained a degree of independence as a Russian protectorate. Lavish ambassadorial gifts from the emirs to the tsars were obligatory, a diplomatic tradition that had developed over centuries. Examples included textiles, furniture, and weapons; among the most luxurious offerings were ceremonial horse covers and blankets embroidered in gold by the elite craftsmen of the Bukhara court.
This elaborate horse cover, which is lined with a traditional ikat-patterned fabric from Uzbekistan (see inset), was probably presented by the emir of Bukhara to the Russian imperial court during the late 1800s. The images of the sphinx and cannons embedded within the golden embroidery and floral patterns quite likely reference famous imperial landmarks in the Russian cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg.
[Label text from It Came From the Vault exhibition, 2013]
Bukhara is in present-day Uzbekistan.
