Grany and the Red Shirts, Ann Silverman, 2020, paper, 24 x 15 in. / 60.96 x 38.1 cm.

Paper, natural dye, woodblock print from a photo of my great grandmother, hand spun paper thread. Granny was know in the family for sewing for the red shirts. Alas, the Red Shirts were supporting an end to Reconstruction in South Carolina after the Civil War.
