Diese wunderschön einzigartige und funktionale Kunst hat im Laufe der Zeit viele Iterationen durchlaufen, daher ist es wichtig, sich daran zu erinnern, wie die Navajo zu Beginn vor der Ära des Handelspostens von den traditionellen Hauptdecken zu den regionalen Bildmaterialen von heute übergegangen sind.ay.
Die historische Periode der Navajo-Teppichweberei begann wirklich in den frühen 1700er Jahren und dauerte bis in die 1850er Jahre. Weber, die von den Pueblos, Spaniern und Händlern lernten, schufen Decken, Kleider, Teppiche und Wandteppiche, die den Grundstein für eine bedeutende künstlerische und kulturelle Bewegung der Navajo gelegt haben.
Das Weben änderte sich schnell von den 1850er bis in die 1940er Jahre. Tatsächlich durchlief der Navajo in dieser Zeit sechs Perioden, darunter: Spätklassiker, Bestattung Bosque Redondo oder Long Walk, Übergang, Teppich, Wiederbelebung und schließlich die regionalen Handelspostenstile.s.
Das Wichtigste, an das Sie sich erinnern sollten, ist, dass wenn Sie sich mit authentischen Navajo-Webereien beschäftigen, seien es Decken, Übergangsarbeiten oder bestimmte Stücke wie Germantown, Dazzlers, Two Grey Hills oder sogar Pictorials, diese originellen Unikate sind Kunstwerke, die nirgendwo sonst auf der Welt zu finden sind.d.
