We framed this 1905 Rowing sweater as part of a project for The Friends of California Mens Crew. Each sweater was sewn onto a cream Bainbridge Artcare backing, and separated from the acrylic with a raised double matting of the same cream mat, with a bottom mat covered with Franks Fabrics harvest gold cotton. Using a fabric mat for the second mat gave deep color saturation to this second layer, enhancing Cal colors. The wood frame was chosen to match existing framing in the T. Gary Rogers Boathouse. The title window reads, Crew Sweater of Edward Bannister, Pacific Coast Champions 1905, Team Captain 1909. |
