§ Frank Lloyd Wright (American 1867-1959) for F. Schumacher & Company 'Taliesin Line' Panel, 1955 design 106, cotton and rayon (48.5cm x 53cm (19in x 20.75in)) Footnote: Provenance: Paul Reeves. In 1955, Wright designed a line of furnishings known as the ''Taliesin Ensemble'' to decorate the houses of people who did not live in one of the houses he completed. F. Schumacher & Co. were one of five companies he collaborated with, who created a range of textiles and wallpapers. Although designed for ''average consumers'' most average consumers were not familiar with or interested in Wrights design vocabulary and the range was not a commercial success, and is therefore now rare to find. The name Taliesin is a reference to Taliesin West, Frank Lloyd Wright's winter home and school from 1937 until his death in 1959. Examples of this textile can be found in Brooklyn Museum and were shown at Frank Lloyd Wright Textiles: The Taliesin Line, 1955-60 , May 2019 - April 2020, The Met, New York.
